Accompanied by hashtags, social media was roaring with pics of leteise and those who didn’t attend wished they had.

It had been more than 18 months without experiencing the thrill of attending an event and donning a stunning outfit, a traditional one for that matter. Speaking of traditional attire, patrons who were mostly dominated by women managed to go beyond the boundaries of the traditional blue coloured leteise. Pink, red and mustard leteisi added some ambiance and complemented the well-known blue colour of leteisi.
