Kenny Okorie the Itsekiri born beauty is on a mission and has followed her her dream of carving a niche for herself in the fashion industry.A graduate of Public Administration and a diploma in french Kennybrings unimaginary things to reality and she said for her,it is the expression of her individuality.
However,she said that to work with a fabric,first she looks at the fabric,then she sketches what she has in mind and then off to the factory to cut and the rest they say is history.Kenny has been into designing since 15th of may 2008 and gets her fabrics locally and in the international market.
