Rugby star blends fashion advice with advocacy for GBV awareness
The Mercury
|November 19, 2025
NOT only is Makazole Mapimpi a standout player on the rugby field, but he is also steadily carving out a niche for himself in the fashion world.
Over the past year, he has demonstrated a keen sense of personal style, using his platform to share fashion and lifestyle advice with his fans.
In a recent TikTok video, Mapimpi dropped one of his now-popular motivational “words of the day”.
“We're not rich yet, but we look like it. Take care of yourself” he said confidently, pairing his message with a clean, well coordinated fit.
His words highlight something he consistently stands by - the importance of looking after yourself, taking pride in your appearance, and putting your best foot forward, even when you haven't “made it” yet. For Mapimpi, dressing well is not about wealth but about self-respect and intention.
