From juggling studies and DJ decks to managing Faith Nketsi and building his own brand, the reality TV star makes sure style is never negotiable.
Reality TV star and influencer Andzelo Tivani is one busy guy. Between juggling school — chasing that law degree — spinning tracks as a DJ, managing the ever-glamorous Faith Nketsi, and secretly working on his very own clothing line (which he teases will be revealed soon), the multitasker still makes sure he steps out looking sharp. Keeping himself in tiptop shape is a non-negotiable, he admits, because presentation is everything.
“You never know who you’ll bump into when you step outside,” he says with a laugh.
When it comes to fashion, Andzelo keeps things sleek and effortless. His style leans minimalistic — with a staple of black jeans and a black T-shirt always on standby.
“My style is quite simple and clean. I love a matching two-piece, a good bodysuit, or well-fitted jeans. Basically, anything that shows off my body because I work out,” he adds with another cheeky giggle.
Looking good has always been second nature to him, something he aspired to from as far back as he can remember.
“I wear what fits my body. Sometimes I even have to get clothes tailor-made to hug me in all the right places,” he explains.
His fashion sense is eclectic, drawing inspiration from everyday people and unexpected encounters rather than relying on one fixed source of style. And in that way, Andzelo manages to create a classic yet personal wardrobe, telling his story one piece at a time.
For him, every day feels like a runway show.
“As someone who always aspires to look my best, I remember bumping into a crush of mine and on that particular day — I looked exactly how I felt: terrible,” he says between laughs.
“And that’s how I landed on my staple outfit of black jeans and a black top. You can never go wrong with that combo, especially when you add a gold chain. I’ve kept this look for years now, and it’s never failed me.”
But it isn’t just about looking good in clothes — Andzelo also invests in the body underneath them. Hitting the gym has become an important part of his routine.
Taking care of his skin is also a top priority.
“I have very sensitive skin. So much so that I once tried a whole skincare routine, but my skin rejected it dismally. I broke out so badly that I had to seek dermatological help. Now I use a specially mixed cream on my face once a week as a moisturizer,” he shares.
“Day to day, I keep it simple — an unscented soap followed by plain old aqueous cream, and I’m good to go. The only extreme thing I do is Botox. That, I’m sorry, I will never part ways with,” he says with a grin.
“If I wear makeup, I’ll use Hydro Boost Triple Micellar Water to remove it, because I’ve found it’s gentle on the skin, then it’s right back to aqueous cream.”
He admits that during his worst skin breakout, his confidence took a real knock. “I’m just glad I finally found what works for me.”
The gym, too, has given him both confidence and balance.
“Naturally, I’m very skinny. And for someone who doesn’t like chewing, I just tend to become skin and bones,” he jokes. “So I knew I had to take charge because as I got older, I started to look weird. Imagine being 30 and looking like all bones.”
“Gym helped me gain the muscle I needed. I’m not looking to get huge, but I do like being toned — arms, chest, thighs, and of course, a six-pack,” he says.
And as a growing content creator, Andzelo makes it clear that the content he puts out is a true reflection of his life — never a performance, and never a stretch just to seem relevant.
“The only reason I don’t follow trends is because I don’t want to start changing who I am. Once you follow trends, it’s a slippery slope to morph into what people want, and then that’s no longer you. I do me, and the people who love my content will consume it,” he says confidently.
And that’s exactly what has carried him this far — simply being himself, always. Whether it’s taking Mondays off to reboot, stepping out only when it feels right, focusing on his education to back it all up, or making sure he always looks good, Andzelo proves that authenticity never goes out of style.
