It’s not every day that you get to experience other cultures and traditions other than your own. This is why I was delighted to take a trip to the Mall of Africa and come experience Incredible India for myself.

When we arrived we were treated to Henna or Mehendi which is something I always love having.


Once the show started I was a lucky chosen guest to demonstrate how a woman is draped in a sari, by a lady who was an expert in doing so. The material was absolutely beautiful and being dressed in a Sari is an art all on it’s own. I also had my make up done by Sumaya Thasthigir from Malaikas Beauty and Jewellery.

I also had an opportunity to try on a punjabi in bright yellow and blue colours. The outfits, jewellery and shoes are available at the various stalls at incredible India.

Incredible India has become an annual event that South African and African Indian communities have come to look forward to at Mall of Africa.
