Designer Statement
"Confidence is key when wearing clothes, only if you are comfortable and confident in who you are. Wether you're a Diva when dressing or more of a comfort dresser. It's very important to be confident in who ever it is that you are.
As a designer I want to help women find their own confidence in being modest. While, being modest is more of a lifestyle than it is just about being confident. but it is what makes up her character, her uniqueness, her drive, her klass. What makes you, you? I don't want my clothes to style her, but for her to style my clothes. Make it yours. Be you!"

ABOUT ME
Modesty is not just what we wear but it is a lifestyle
-Koneaka Brown
My name is Koneaka M. Brown. I was born in Morgan City, Louisiana on December 29,1995. I am a recent graduate from "The Art Institute of Atlanta" where I have a Bachelor's in Fine Arts/ Fashion Design. My role in the Fashion Industry is to design and create Modest fashion for Women all over who still wish to stay modestly beautiful. I want my sisters to feel and look amazing while still being able to be beautifully covered.
As I began to establish my business my mission has always been to design and
produce problem solving garments for Modest Women. As a young woman who dresses
modestly myself, I would always have the hardest times finding the right clothing to feel
comfortable. The older I got it seems as though the clothing began to get more and
more revealing. I had to do something! So, I began making my own skirts at the age of 15.
My handmade skirts started to get popular and in high demand. It was then when I
realized how many others there are out there that were just like me!
Nearly three years later, I was around the age of 18 years old. After much prayer and fasting I made the biggest decision of my life. I decided to make modesty my lifestyle and not just clothes that I wear.
After 4 long years of college, I graduated with a Bachelors in Fashion Design AND business
registration papers. I DID IT! only by the grace of God. My business started right before graduation. Later God changed it from my business to my ministry. I am so excited to be on this journey for the Lord and I'm hopeful for the many successful years to come with God’s help.
HOW IT ALL STARTED
The name "Her Klass" was chosen simply because a woman's class speaks volumes. It is not just
about the way she looks or dresses but about her character and style and about "why"
she dresses the way she does and the meaning behind her style. Her confidence is key.
The word class beginning with the letter "K" in honor of the founder Koneaka.
When you see our clothes, Think Her Style, Her Character, Her Uniqueness, Her Drive, Her Klass!
"Modesty is not just what we wear but it is a lifestyle"
Her Klass was established January of 2019 at home. Just with the drive and inspiration to make a difference in the modest apparel community. God later changed the direction of Her Klass Modest Apparel. It's been
established to make a difference. It's not just about selling clothes but spreading the love of God. With him, we pray to reach the nations.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
