Standard Bank Chenin Blanc Top Ten Challenge crowns 2025 champions
Winners of the 2025 Standard Bank Chenin Blanc Top Ten Challenge have been unveiled, and once again, Stellenbosch emerges as a dominant force in this prestigious competition.
Spotlighting the ferocious and unconventional spirit of the Mostro, model and tastemaker Amelia Gray leads this latest campaign from PUMA, with Maglera the face of the local campaign.
Gray’s fearless style and her ability to define trends embody the Mostro itself – disruptive and utterly original. After dark, Gray’s unmistakable synergy with the silhouette comes to life through a striking series of visuals that explore moments of intimacy and fierce attitude during a night out.
Through the campaign, anticipation continues to build, creating a fluid rhythm that mirrors the bold energy of the PUMA Mostro. As the night continues to unfold, Gray’s curiosity ultimately draws new and bold connections.
“I love that the Mostro is comfy, cool, and just easy to wear. It looks great with everything and instantly pulls the whole look together. It has that perfect mix of retro and modern that makes any outfit feel more elevated,” says Gray.
Following collaborations and special-edition releases, the unmistakable Mostro continues to make noise. First released in 1999 and given the name “Mostro,” after the Italian word for monster, the silhouette takes its hybrid look from a 1960s track spike and a 1980s surfing shoe, culminating in a unique low-profile silhouette defined by its signature spiked sole and utilitarian strap closure. Now the PUMA Mostro shares the main stage with Gray.
On 5 June 2025, the first chapter is unveiled with the launch of the “Pelé Yellow” Mostro, available on PUMA.com, PUMA Retail stores, Sportscene, Archive, JD Sports, Superbalist and Office London. Price R2399.
