From her mother taking her fabric shopping, to make matching outfits for the family, to watching her seamstress neighbor design Carnival costumes, custom fashion was all around Akisha Kirkland, Owner, and Designer of Kishme. While growing up in the Virgin Islands, she has always enjoyed imagining and sketching designs and to help make her ideas tangible.
Akisha resides in Texas and has obtained a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Fashion Design from Texas Woman’s University. Upon graduation, she formed Kishme, which is all about accentuating a woman’s body in bold, feminine elegance. What she really loves about designing custom pieces is the excitement that her clients have knowing that no one will have their exact garment, and that it was made to perfectly fit them. From sketch to final creation, every step of the design process is done by the designer herself.
The Kishme custom design process begins with a virtual or in-person consultation where all details are discussed, potential fabric options reviewed, and measurements are taken. A fashion sketch of your dream design is created during the consultation as well. A muslin or rough draft version of your custom creation is then fitted before moving on to the final design.
