Mbatha also complimented the movie's Oscar-winning costume designer, American Ruth E Carter, calling her a"visionary".that representing Africa sartorially on screen was a responsibility she took"very seriously".
“I didn't want to let people continue to perpetuate notions that are 100 years old about how people live in Africa. I wanted to show how creative they are and how royalty is represented," she explained. Carter added that when she borrows a garment from another culture, she wants to know all about it:"If I change it for some particular reason or add it to another costume that it wouldn't usually be combined with, I know what the representation of that piece of clothing means and why it's worn. That helps me decide where each piece should go.
