Kivari Reese Mini Dress - Women's Floral Print Short Sleeve Summer Dress for Casual Wear, Date Night & Beach Vacation

As  a  four  year  old  Kirstin (nickname Kiki)  travelled  around  Europe  with  her  parents in  their  brown  combie  van,  igniting her curiosity and desire to seek inspiration and adventure. 

Her  mother  taught  her  to  sew,  and  growing  up  she  would  make  her  own  dresses,  daydreaming about  one  day  starting  her  own  fashion  label.  Though  unlike  the  conventional  tales  of  becoming  a fashion designer, Kiki’s journey went in a very different direction. She became a radiographer. 

She  spent  years  divided  between  working  as  a  radiographer  in  Australia,  and  moments  of  freedom; travelling the globe, and living abroad in London and Dubai. Though there was something missing. 

Being  the  kind  of  girl  that  would  never  give  up  on  her  dreams,  Kiki  was  determined  to  make  a change.  It  was  2010,  and  while  on  a  surf  trip  in  Indonesia,  she  started  sketching  up  designs  for small leather wallets and bags. She set up a stall at the local market, and Kivari was born. 

In  just  five  years,  Kiki  has  grown  Kivari  into  a  international lifestyle  brand,  opening  their  first  concept  store  on Sydney’s  Northern  Beaches  in  2015.  Her  bohemian styles pieces  are  now  stocked  in  over  100  retail  outlets  world wide;  and  almost  needless  to  say,  she  has  never  looked  back.
