Levels! Thebe Magugu Gets to Design the Official Kit Of A Major Premier League Football Team. How heartwarming is it to see local football teams working together with local entrepreneurs. Just a year ago, Drip Footwear penetrated the sports industry. The shoe brand was unveiled as the official footwear sponsor of PSL football club, Sekhukhune FC in March 2022.
Now another fashion entrepreneur has bagged a deal with a major football team. Thebe Magugu is the designer of the official kit for Orlando Pirates Football Club. The internationally recognized designer has created both the home and away kits of Orlando Pirates. The set will be won by the club in the 2023/24 season.
“Orlando Pirates x Thebe Magugu We are pleased to announce that we have designed the official kit for @orlandopirates, the celebrated South African FC. In a ‘home kit’ of black and an ‘away kit’ of pistachio green, the set will serve the club for 2023/24 #orlandopirates,” Thebe announced.
Thebe continues to shine in the fashion industry, and we are here for his growth. In December 2022, he was honored by Vogue as one of the inaugural Vogue Business 100 Innovators. The award winning designer was selected under the Next-gen entrepreneurs and agitators list.
Earlier in 2022, American reality TV star and businesswoman Kylie Jenner rocked an item from his AW21’s ‘Alchemy’ collection. The collection, which embraces the world of healers, has become a hit both locally and internationally.
Four months later, Thebe dressed another international star, Rihanna. The multi-award winning Barbadian singer-songwriter and businesswoman rocked a Thebe Magugu Merino wool fringe knitted dress that has a detachable bralette. The outfit also comes from AW21’s Alchemy collection.
