he J&B Met, one of South Africa’s most prestigious social events, will be taking place on Saturday, January T30, at the Kenilworth Racecourse in Cape Town.

It is all about being creative and with the hot summer days still in full swing, soft neutral colours are in for women who want to wear dresses or suits. For men, the big buzz is around denim, which can be worn in the form of shorts paired with a shirt, tie and coat; or just worn plain with a floral shirt. With this theme anything goes and the outfit you choose can be simple and elegant, but also com- fortable. J&B Met set to be a fashion, music, food and horseracing extravaganza
