“Sometimes there are dresses that Joan (her character in the show) doesn’t end up wearing and every once in a while I will borrow one for an event. I like to sort of be ‘put together’. I’ve actually been a fan of being a bit more covered up than Joan. I’ve always believed that’s a sophisticated and sexy look,” showbiz-spy.com quoted her as saying.

Hendricks feels her role in the show has helped boost her own sense of style. “I’ve learned silhouettes from Joan. I wear a lot more pencil skirts and things like that. I realise they look good on everybody,” she said.
