Fashion designer shares inspiring journey

The designer, known as @geenahsstitches on TikTok, chronicled her journey from being an apprentice to a luxury brand owner.

Starting her apprenticeship in 2014 at just 15 years old, she spent two years honing her craft before launching her business from her father's house.

A turning point came in 2020 when a generous acquaintance offered her a shop space to share with his sister.

Though grateful, she aspired to greater success. Six months later, she secured her own shop, modestly equipped with two sewing machines and a rug gifted by her parents.

Fast-forward to 2023, the designer had saved enough to expand into a larger space. With her family's support, she embarked on an extensive renovation, driven by her vision for excellence.

The outcome was breathtaking, a stunning duplex fashion house that exceeded her wildest dreams.

She narrated:

"Started as an apprentice early 2014. 2016 started practising at home and learning for two years. Started business in my father's house. I was 15 years old at the time. Early 2020, a Christian brother travelled leaving his shop. Offered me to use the shop with his sister and share the rent. I accepted. Very content and grateful at the time but I wanted more and God had bigger plans for me. "Got my own shop about 6 months later and this was what I had in it. Two sewing machines. My parents gave me a rug to make my fitting area look pretty and it did. Fast forward to 2023 I told my family that I've saved up and ready to move to a bigger space. They were all so proud. They joined me house hunting and we found this space. "I was so excited. I proceeded with renovation. This part drained me. It was a lot. I wanted the best for this space. And I didn't want to settle for anything less. My parents were always around to help. They mean the world to me. It was all coming together. The excitement I had through every space was everything. Now look at what my God has done. Words cannot explain how grateful I am."
