Just START, keep pushing and never stop!

Delina Chipape is a beautiful young woman from Mankweng, Turfloop, Limpopo Province in South Africa. A talented fashion designer is a qualified Environmental scientist who believes that the sky is the limit.

“Thanks once more for this opportunity, there was always this creative little girl in me, who inspired me to aspire to be everything I wanted to be, which is a vessel of creation and share art, talent and imagination with the world. I am a self-taught fashion designer and established a business and fashion brand to showcase my creativity as well as provide services which is OKYD. “, she said.

Although Delina has been in a business for a long time, the challenges in the industry will always been there. “Reaching my target market is always a challenge, however it is something am working on, I do not necessarily believe in the limits. OKYD is now online, the aim is to reach my target audience and be able to manage sales from anywhere. Covid – 19 has taught me lot of things with regards to the previous physical store I had”, added Delina.

Many business struggles to survive due to lack of support from the community but not for OKYD. “Community is definitely supportive, you just have to know them and what they want, what they can afford and what speaks to them. There are lot of good things coming on the way. My message to all aspiring fashion designers is to start and never stop, it’s okay to take break but never give up because there is a reason for you to do what you love, which is the gift”, she said.

OKYD has dropped latest t shirt lines and now provides other services such as revamping, graduations attire, corporate uniform, manufacturing custom carpet, branding etc.
