Simply put, in 2014 IMIHI (pronounced em-may-hee) was created as a hashtag for me to encourage body positivity.
I decided to learn sewing as a hobby back in 2015 just to create clothing for myself that I couldn't find in stores. Being plus-size, I found it frustrating to go shopping in stores and not be able to find quality and fashionable clothing in my size. Often times it left me feeling defeated and insecure. While my intention was just to make clothes for myself, it was clear God had other plans.
In 2015, I created a custom piece for a friend, and once it was posted to social media, IMIHI quickly became more than a body-positive hashtag. It became a brand that embodied class, elegance, creativity, and so much more.
My hope is that every client I encounter has an experience that allows them to see themselves as the amazing and beautiful person that God intended them to be; that they’ll be able to look in the mirror and simply say “I AM IMIHI (I’m Made In His Image).”
