My mother is my biggest inspiration.

ABOUT US

I'm Kamilat a Black Muslim woman who was born in Lagos, Nigeria and grew up in London, U.K.

I currently live in Edinburgh, Scotland. I started making clothes at 18 years old for myself when going to parties, weddings and social events with friends. I worked with my mother who loved connecting with people through Art and these things inspired me to study Fashion at university in Epsom, Surrey.

I remember assisting my mother in making a beautiful dress, by holding the piece of fabric as she cut through it. I listened to her intently while she used the sewing machine, and closely observed her sketch and prepare various outfits for a collection exhibited in London, I had so much to learn.

So, while at university, I applied the rich experience I learnt prior, into my studies and did pop-up events while studying and loved the elegance exuded when the model was the star of the show.

Since my personal journey with my pregnancy, I’ve been exploring elegance, resilient strength involving various routes to motherhood, especially the journey during pregnancy to the celebration of bringing new life into the world. I am on the journey of women who want to experience elegance alongside the joyful experiences of mother-hood through my love for desigining & bringing my ideas to life.
