When you hear "Sun Met" you immediately think about fashion and horses.
With just a week to go fashionistas and punters are looking forward to an exciting day filled with a colourful display of outrageous outfits, celebrity spotting and the horse racing of course.
For some, the event is ALL about fashion with the races a mere side thought.
On Friday morning beauty, fashion and all things equestrian came together on Muizenberg beach in Cape Town where the media had the opportunity to experience both sides of this prestigious event.
While the racehorses trot along the shore, Miss South Africa Sasha-Lee Olivier and Miss SA finalist Chuma Matsaluka posed on the sandy beach as photographers snapped pictures of the stunners from all angels.
