MEET THE FOUNDER

Hey Queen! I'm so glad you're here. My name is Akia and I am the founder and designer of Akia Nicole. Throughout my life I've had a great love for fashion and have used it as a way to express myself and boost my confidence. I truly believe that when you look good you feel good and I started my design journey as a way to help other women feel beautiful.

In the early stages of business, I started designing custom pieces for my family and friends. After designing a variety of pieces from evening wear to birthday dresses, I would soon find my love for resort wear.

As I was planning to go on a vacation to St.Lucia, I struggled to find pieces that I wanted to wear. Like any creative, I decided to create the pieces I wished existed. This journey led me to infuse my love of travel and fashion and create the lifestyle brand Akia Nicole with the desire to help women travel the world in style.

Aside from designing, I enjoy traveling, cooking, and making memories with my family.

Thank you for being on this journey with me. I look forward to the chance to create something beautiful for you.
