Fashion with Purpose - the most beautiful rendition of this message is Tirza Design at Country Club Plaza, in Kansas City! Owner Nikki Affolter created a brand where every purchase empowers survivors of humans trafficking, abuse and other forms of exploitation. For a sociology masters and marketing masters like me, it was a moment when you had goosebumps! I mean, when in a classroom, you might have a vision of what could be done when you learn about human trafficking - Nikki has brought that vision to life, which many of us might have only read of in textbooks!
I had the privilege of attending the soft-opening of Tirza Design , at the former Kate Spade location of Country Club Plaza . They feature fair trade suppliers, eco-friendly packaging, and the highest quality gold-filled/sterling silver findings made in America.
YOU are empowered by investing in a REAL fashion statement that has action and meaningful jobs behind the brand. Survivors, of trafficking, abuse an exploitation are empowered through community, education and employment.
Thanks KES Studio for the invite!
