My Passion ignites when I hear how women feel in my designs. I love to make people feel, sexy, confident in control, that's powerful.
We would like to thank you for supporting Akili Jahi Cooper in this years competition. Your participation allows us to empower the Elton John AIDS Foundation in their mission to end AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
What makes your style stand out?
I stay true to what I feel comfortable & sexy in. I like to say I dress like a sexy church boy lol
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be to learn from the Versace Atelier. I’ve admired Donatella and the house of Versace since my earliest days in fashion. To experience their creative world firsthand would be the ultimate dream and an unforgettable milestone in my journey.
What would you do with $20,000?
With $20,000, I would expand my Jahi Designer Brunch to support more young creatives through scholarships and programming. I would also upgrade my sewing space with professional equipment and resources, ensuring I can produce at a higher level and it'd help me to be able to build out my brand.
