Groove in style: your ultimate guide to comfortable fashion for the CTIJF

THE Cape Town International Jazz Festival is all about the music, the energy, the people, and yes, the fashion.

What started in 2000 as a relatively small gathering of jazz lovers has grown into one of Africa's biggest music festivals, drawing international stars and local legends to the heart of the Mother City.

Every year, fans flock to the city not only for the sounds, but for the vibes and that includes planning the perfect outfit.

It's a weekend escape, a reason to dress up, unwind and soak in the culture.

And trust me, people don't play when it comes to their style choices.

The festival has become a catwalk of its own - where cool meets comfort, and where your outfit needs to work for both daytime grooves and night-time chills. Because let's face it, Cape Town weather can have its mood swings.

It's a chance for you to express your vibe, your personality and maybe show off that one bold outfit you've been saving.

Flowy materials Here's the golden rule: you'll be moving (unless you're the type who just wants to chill in a comfortable seat).

Between dancing, queuing, and weaving your way through the crowd, you'll want to be dressed in something that lets you breathe.
