Ever wondered where you can get Felicity's clothes from 7de Laan?
Wonder no more because we have the answer.
TVSA member lianij posed the question on the TVSA Message Boards:
We've investigated and discovered there is no one place that you can buy them but there is a secret to her style which will help you achieve the look.
Felicity's wardrobe is designed and compiled by 7de Laan's wardrobe mistress Mathilda Engelbrecht, who shared her secrets with us when we chatted to her recently...
The eye behind Feliclity's outfits and her boutique.
Mathilda creates Felicity's look by combining bought clothes with clothes made in the show's wardrobe department.
She scours the shops for affordable, suitable fashions and picks up one of two items to create a look which she enhances with what she already has. She mixes and matches and adapts things to achieve the overall effect.
All of the characters on 7de Laan are dressed according to their personalities and their emotional lives at any given time. Mathilda explains:
'When we changed the look of Felicity's boutique - when her boutique became smarter, more upmarket, more Poetry-like - we thought, ‘Okay, maybe her wardrobe should change from the heavy printed shirts and skinny jeans. Let’s give her a more structured and architectural look.'”
According to Mathilda, you can put together Felicity's architectural look by combining a 50s skirt with a crisp, well constructed shirt with a collar or neck detail. Accessorise with an interesting belt and/or jewellery. (Which the show uses to bring out Felicity's design flair.)
