LU: Tell us about your designs for children, what made you take that direction and how has that line been received?
KF: I never thought that I would design for kids so soon. Until I had a dream in the latter part of 2013, where I designed four swimsuits for kids. The collection was very successful in the dream, and since then I decided to make it a reality by designing and making a six-piece collection for little girls. I am glad that I did. Kids are always fun to work with so I decided to call my kids line, Trèfle284. 284 is the area code of my country so it was important for me to tie the two together. I love my country and I merge it in any way that I can with Trèfle.
LU: What has been your biggest achievement as a designer so far?
KF: I launched my online boutique store that features swimwear and resort-wear for women and kids. The online store can be accessed three ways: Website: www.Trèfledesigns.com, Direct Page: shop.Trèfledesigns.com and also on Facebook.
LU: Do you design and sew your own clothing?
KF: During my college days in Tampa, Florida, I designed and made everything on my own but since I started the company in 2008, I brought a team on board to bring my designs to life.
