Devi | Lady Secreto and Sarafina - Leleti Khumalo | 13 August

LADY SECRETO

Social media platforms have made it easier than ever to advertise and sell products online. The eCommerce industry saw a 66% growth during the pandemic, and among South African consumers, the two most popular categories for online purchases are clothing and shoes.

Enter Lady Secreto - a fairly new entrant to the market fronted by husband-and-wife duo, Hanri and Douw Steyl. It all went well until the beginning of 2023 when numerous customers contacted #TheDeviShow, claiming to have not received their orders … or refunds.

We do a bit of digging and discover that the company has gone into voluntary liquidation. But after the online store's closure, Douw then opened a new fashion venture, marketing similar goods to that of the failed Lady Secreto..

SARAFINA – LELETI KHUMALO

We catch up with Leleti Khumalo whose lead role in the Sarafina, catapulted her onto the international stage.

Thirty-one years later, the musical drama is back on our screens – this time it’s been digitally remastered and has landed on IMAX – so it’s bigger and better than ever.
