Drippin’ With Certificates! Somizi Mhlongo Graduates From Fashion School

Just when you thought Somizi Mhlongo couldn’t add any more sparkle to his name — boom! The entertainer, TV icon, and style powerhouse has officially graduated from fashion school!
We all know fashion and Somizi go hand in hand — like glitter and spotlight. Whenever he shows up at an event, you know it’s going to be a full production: bold, extravagant, and impossible to ignore. So it’s no surprise that he’s now certified to turn his passion into an even bigger empire.

Red Carpets To Runway Royalty
About a year ago, Somizi officially stepped into the fashion game by launching his Sompire Kids clothing brand, which later evolved to include adults’ fashion. Soon after, the star began designing from scratch — and let’s just say, he understood the assignment!
From Moshe Ndiki’s jaw-dropping look at the 18th METRO FM Music Awards in 2024 to Zola Mhlongo’s slay moment this year, Somizi Mhlongo has been behind some of Mzansi’s most talked-about red-carpet looks.
He’s not just making couture for celebs, though — Somizi has now taken on Matric Dance orders (because everyone deserves a taste of Sompire magic). And if that wasn’t enough, he showcased his latest work at the Durban Fashion Fair, where his runway was packed with icons: Mihlali Ndamase, Bahumi, Minnie Dlamini, Baby Cele, Yaya Mavundla, Sorisha Naidoo, Kelly Khumalo, Babalwa Mneno, Zola Mhlongo, and Sithelo Shozi.

Fashion School Graduate Era — Somizi’s Next Chapter
Taking to Instagram after officially graduating, Somizi couldn’t hold back his pride and gratitude.
“SOMIZI I AM SUPER PROUD OF YOU. Thanks to my family, my friends for the love and support, and my fans for cheering me on from the beginning. @villiotifashion words cannot explain. Special shout out to @moosas_fabrics — you made this journey easier.”
With his fashion certificate now in hand and his creative empire expanding, Somizi Mhlongo continues to prove that when it comes to reinvention, no one does it better. From dancer, to presenter, to fashion graduate and designer — this man is the definition of booked, blessed, and forever fabulous.
