Komtessa Boutique

Komtessa Boutique has been part of the local fashion scene since 1992, when founder Kokkie Engelbrecht opened the Gansbaai branch after establishing boutiques in Tygervalley and Goodwood.
In 2022, after almost 50 years in the fashion and retail industry, Kokkie retired and sold Komtessa to Tinneke Lutzeyer. This marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the boutique.
For Tinneke, taking ownership was a natural continuation of a long-standing connection with the Komtessa brand. She first worked at the boutique during school holidays as a teenager, where her love for fashion’s glitz and glamour began. After matriculating, she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Motion Picture Medium from the African Film and Drama Academy in 2008.
Today, Tinneke continues Komtessa’s tradition of quality and personalised service while bringing her own fresh approach to the boutique. The collection has expanded to include trend-led clothing alongside timeless classics, with a special focus on showcasing local designers.
Accessories such as leather belts, handbags, scarves, and costume jewellery complement the collection of clothing and shoes. The boutique’s stunning gift selection includes lifestyle items such as room diffusers, wicker baskets and other carefully chosen pieces.
Whether you are looking for a new outfit, browsing for something special, need a little styling advice, or want to pop in for a chat, Tinneke and her team look forward to welcoming you to Komtessa Boutique.
The team at Komtessa Boutique are always welcoming, whether you are there to buy, browse or say hello.

“Tinneke, ek wil graag vir jou en jou designer baie dankie sê uit die diepte van my hart vir julle pragtige diensleweringswerk en professionalisme met betrekking tot die maak van my maid of honour rok. Die eindproduk voel soos 'n droom aan my. Die rok sit lekker gemaklik aan my waarin ek kan asemhaal in die rok. Die toevoeging van die batwing sleeves het rêrig 'n groot verskil aan die rok gemaak.
