This is Adele
Hi, I'm Adelle —
a hosewife turned fashion designer with a passion for creativity and resilience. Originally from Congo, I found myself at the Kakuma Refugee Camp in 2017, determined to build a better future. Today, I run a thriving shop, crafting tailored clothing and vibrant bags from Ankara fabrics. Join me on this journey of empowerment and creativity!
Life in Congo was centered around my role as a devoted hosewife, caring for my seven wonderful children alongside my husband. Amidst the chaos of family life, I found solace and joy in sewing women's clothing, honing my skills with each stitch.
Today, I've transcended my role as a hosewife to become a proud business owner. Within the walls of my shop, the rhythmic clatter of two sewing machines echoes, serving as a testament to my unwavering dedication. Together with my devoted assistant, we embark on a journey of creation, crafting a diverse range of tailored items. Each moment spent in the creative process invigorates me, igniting a passion that drives me to continually innovate and explore new avenues, such as the art of bag-making.
My affection for vibrant colors and daring patterns finds expression in the unique bags I meticulously craft from Ankara fabrics and denim. Whether it's a robust school bag, a practical travel companion, or a striking fashion statement, every creation bears the imprint of my heart and soul.
As I gaze towards the horizon, my vision for the future is clear: to transform my humble shop into a bustling haven of tailoring excellence. Here, meticulous attention to detail and a focus on custom-made pieces will reign supreme. I dream of creating a space where clients not only discover impeccably crafted garments but also have the opportunity to express their individual style through bespoke designs.
The path from hosewife to entrepreneur has been fraught with challenges, but each obstacle has only fueled my determination and purpose. Being an integral part of this vibrant community, where I have the privilege of empowering others with my skills, fills me with profound satisfaction. With anticipation bubbling in my heart, I eagerly await the unfolding of the future—one stitch, one satisfied customer at a time.
