Growing up between the U.K and Uganda, Nabisere Nicole gained a unique perspective on the complexities of belonging and identity. After graduating from Central St Martins Womenswear, she established KAKAZI studio in 2018. This came at a time when she was seeking authentic representation of African and Caribbean experiences within the fashion industry. A space in which she also wanted to foster connections with people who shared a love of design, community and storytelling.
