Don't be ugly
Don’t be ugly
Everyone knows about the fast, innovative, imaginative, trendsetting, fabulous and oh-lala side of the fashion industry. The side that has you skipping dinner for 2 weeks just so you can afford a designer coat; the side that graces our magazines, our televisions… and disturbingly often even our dreams. This fast paced industry is not only one of the most competitive and lucrative; but…

TRANSPARENCY - A Ryan Shaw Photography Collaboration
Keeping up appearances. Or just keeping up with the person other people think you are. Life should not be a race against ourselves, it should be a continual discovery of truth. We wouldn’t have anything to hide if we bared all our secrets, all our worries, all our fears. Transparency is freedom. Transparency is allowing others to see you, and for you to see yourself. This way you grow and learn…

Bet on yourself...
“Bet on yourself”
Inspiring words taken from Sophia Amoruso’s recent book, words that mirror the very core of what our brand stands for. So many people and products always promise to be the solution to your problems, it seems the world is always encouraging us to look elsewhere if we want to succeed; a secret formula or a to-do list for happiness and success, and somehow the only thing these all…

A week of sharing
It is not because we believe love should only be shared on Valentines day, we believe love should be shared always. But I guess people are willing to pay attention during this week. So for the next few days, we have little posts dedicated to happy, hearty feelings accompanied by an amazing photo taken by @ElleEmmanuel Photography of our summer, Tangramity collection.

Hello Year :)
Ok firstly, I have to admit that this is a super belated hello year. With that said the beginning of the year is always full of admin, and in between that admin are glorious moments of pure magic. One first moment of glorious magic was our photo-shoot with Elle Emmanuel photography. It was a location shoot (Bagamoyo, Tanzania) and we thought If we are gonna do something from now on, we are gonna…

Tangramity. At first, that probably sounds like a term used in physics. But really it’s a term that doesn’t exist at all; created by combining the words Tangram and asymmetry. The two main points of inspiration for our new capsule collection.
Tangrams are Chinese puzzles that derive from taking a square, and dividing it into 7 other parts. With these 7 pieces you are then able to create…

Peter Magazine Issue 1 I think people should support people. Peter Magazine is a lifestyle magazine that aims to promote everyone and anyone who is trying to contribute something to South Africa and in effect Africa and beyond.
Promo stuff  With the encouragement of my friends I started a FB page two weeks ago just to create some hype...
Kahvara before Kahvarah
Ok I haven’t really said much about the brand as a whole, to be honest I underestimated the work that goes into putting a collection together let alone starting your own business. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t just wake up and decide I want to own my brand… nope. I think I did everything possible to distract myself from starting a brand, but it seems when your heart really REALLY wants something. It won’t let you be.
In my final year of completing my economics degree ( i spent more time in the library reading fashion books than i did eco’s books), i came across a few people who were interested in my designs, and among those people was Gerald Machona (http://www.artthrob.co.za/Artists/Gerald-Machona.aspx – check that out)  an amazing photographer who took pictures of my very poorly contracted garments.
When i was asked what the brand was called, I remember my little brother once came up with an idea to mash all our siblings names together… Ka (Kaneja), Va (Valerie) and Ra (Rachel). It sounded so pretty and nice and basically because we share DNA his idea is also mine right… lol. Anyways he got over the fact that i used his name. The h’s in the name are just added for pronunciation purposes. Also i like the shape of a capital H.
Long story short, came up with the first logo in 2011, did the photoshoot then…. *crickets* i had no fashion experience other than playing around on a sewing machine. SOOO 3 years later and I’m almost done with my fashion degree with the encouragement of friends and family Kahvarah has resurrected and here are some before pictures (taken by Gerald) i found that made my heart smile (that time I had econometrics to study for -__-)
Have a lovely weekend everyone ^_^
