Calling all Harare mahhomes! Did you catch the glitz and glam of the Miss Universe Zimbabwe pageant last night?
Held right here in the capital at the Harare Hippodrome, the event saw a local beauty rise to the top – our very own Sakhile Dube from Bulawayo!
From City of Kings to Queen of the Nation
Sakhile's journey to the coveted Miss Universe Zimbabwe crown is an inspiring one. This 27-year-old powerhouse isn't just stunning, she's got brains too! A graduate of Sizane High School and the Women's University in Africa with a degree in psychology, Sakhile could have easily pursued a career in therapy. But her passion for fashion and modeling drew her to a different path.
A Shining Example of Following Your Dreams
Remember all those nights spent sketching outfits and practicing your runway walk in front of the mirror? Sakhile's story proves that dedication pays off. Starting at just 21, she snagged the title of Face of Zimbabwe Fashion Week 2018, a dream come true for any aspiring model in Harare. But Sakhile didn't stop there. |
