Blackcherry
(Dar es salaam)

Blackcherry was started officially in February 2020 but it had been my dream for as long as I could remember. The vision and mission was always in my head to design clothing that would make a woman feel like she can truly own who she is without conforming to societal pressure. The idea of suit on a woman is to me the ultimate sophistication and everything else that I design I draw my inspiration from its silhouette. I wanted women to understand that you can take the suit from a boardroom to anywhere you feel like. Being formal was how I was taught to present myself so a lot of my designs became formal and playful at the same time. Having not studied fashion design, everything was just self-taught and I cannot wait to learn more and discover more. One day I would like to see it as a brand outside of Tanzania.
