Originally from Milwaukee, WI; Kevon Raye received her Bachelors of Arts from Marquette University where she studied Broadcast Communication and Marketing. Throughout college, Kevon used her love for fashion as inspiration to resell lightly worn clothing and shoes to locals through Facebook, eBay, and Poshmark. Kevon knew that she was on to something by the response she received and officially started off her entrepreneurial journey with a clothing boutique in 2014. Kevon always had visions of unique styles, but could never find specific designs available on the ready-to-wear market. This is when she branched out and learned to design her own custom pieces.
Kevon tapped into the design industry in 2017 by taking a class in New York City where she learned the basics of sewing. From there, she taught herself everything she needed to know about designing. She focused on perfecting her craft and traveled between New York’s Garment District and Los Angeles’ Fashion District to learn about and source fabric. She would also visit Goldhawk Road in London, UK often, where she would bring back exclusive fabrics that she could not find in the United States. This is how Kéraye London was born.
As Kéraye London continues to grow, the brand specializes in looks for the bold, daring, sexy yet classy. Kevon Raye makes pieces for “special occasions” because every day is a special occasion. Kéraye London’s exclusive, quality pieces will surely have heads turning and give the ultimate feeling of confidence.
