the fashion feed - episode 38 - crowdfunding during a pandemic with kayleigh @ bind london
During the BLM movement, I came across Kayleigh’s page via Katie Ramsingh’s instagram & couldn’t be happier about it! Kayleigh’s positive energy & vibrant motivation on her crowdfunding page was contagious so I got in touch about her being on the podcast.
She was frustrated when shopping for headwear & the fact there wasn’t anything for her hair type on the market so she created her own.
Bind London is a culturally inclusive headwear range includes two bands, a head scarf, head wrap, hijab and durag which is currently in production due to launch this summer!
