Thembi Seete

"Ive always loved fashion and the art of standing out, using clothes as a form of self-expression."

"Culture is a very important part of who we are, and it makes us great."

"Also, there comes a point in life when you get tired of playing it safe. You sort of want to stretch yourself a bit and kind of surprise yourself. I love the element of surprising myself and not being too comfortable in the things that I do."

"Im a sister and the aim here is not to break people or make them feel like they cant do anything."

"I think this stems from our parents because they were never comfortable enough to talk to us about intimacy. But it’s something that should be handled with respect. These are the elements I thought about - to say ‘you know what, sex is not a bad thing. It’s what created all of us.’"

"That’s the beauty about acting - it allows you to forget about yourself and to wear this character."

"I am particular about craftmanship. I believe a garment should be as beautiful inside as it is outside."

"I think that my real age is 16, I’m just energetic and full of life."

"I love clean, structured, and refined pieces that you could almost wear inside out because of how well theyre made. Every stitch, every seam, tells a story of care, pride, and passion."

"I am a big supporter of embracing who you are and staying authentic, because thats the one quality that separates you from the rest."
