“Rachel Kolisi Channels Princess Diana Vibes with Bold Outfit Choice”
Rachel Kolisi – the soon-to-be ex-wife of Springbok captain Siya Kolisi – has been compared to Prince William’s mother, Princess Diana, after she rocked the red carpet in a “revenge dress”.
Rachel was a VIP guest at the 2024 Earthshot Awards ceremony, which was held on Wednesday, 6 November, at the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens in Cape Town.
Like Diana, Rachel is going through a public divorce and has made her first appearance since the news of the marriage split.
RACHEL KOLISI ROCKS ‘REVENGE DRESS’?
In clips posted online, a glamorous Rachel Kolisi is seen walking the red carpet at the 2024 Earthshot Awards.
The mom of two wore an off-shoulder black evening dress. She paired it with sparkly earrings and a bracelet. Like Siya, Rachel did not wear her wedding ring on her finger.
Rachel’s dress was courtesy of the sustainable fashion brand Style Rotate, which rents out red-carpet dresses to the public. According to the Springbok WAG, she is a big fan of the eco-friendly brand.

Similarly, Princess Diana – who at the time was going through a high-profile split – wore a little black dress (LBD) on her first red carpet since news of her divorce.
The gown featured an off-the-shoulder, figure-hugging silhouette.
