Enhle admitted that she fell in love with it herself, and when Connie's passing was announced, she decided to wear it in her honour.

"This dress, like many others, has a story; I will keep it short, though. It was completed by the @essie_apparel team for Mama @conniechiume in March. We went for something simpler to save this particular dress for a lifetime achievement award.

Then, I would use it for something else, as I loved this baby. After finding out about Mama resting, I decided to wear it to the @basadiinmusicawards_sa this past weekend as a reminder of Mama's fab. And Oboy, did I look fab? Mama’s #EmpressEnhle: I will miss her stories, but oksalayo, we looked cute."
