hi.

My name is Cheyenne Kimora, and my journey as a self-taught fashion designer has been one of grit, glam, and unrelenting grind. Born in Brooklyn, NY, to a family of West Indian descent, and raised in Florida, my path to fashion was anything but conventional. I didn’t grow up with a sketchbook filled with designs or received an education in fashion. Instead, I found my passion for fashion through a love of art and history, eventually leading me to create my own handcrafted label, CheyenneKimora.
