What We Do

Hi! Welcome to NAK Design Studio. We are the go to place for non traditional bridal attire. We are for unconventional  and fashion-forward brides. What does that even mean? It means we do not carry any wedding gowns….well in the traditional sense. We create and curate collections consisting of bridal jumpsuits, bridal separates, colored and non conventional gowns.

 We cater to brides that want attire for a simple ceremony, destination wedding, courthouse ceremony, reception attire and the list goes on. Our collections are multifunctional, unique, and can be mixed and matched to create your own individual look.

 

Who We Are

Nichole Kenner Harris

Founder & Creative Director

Hello there darling. I am Nichole Kenner Harris Founder and Creative Director of NAK Design Studio and it is story time. 

Around 2011 I was unemployed, part time Army cook and full time student, with a roommate that depended on me to pay my share of the bills. To this day I know it was nothing but God that got me thru that period of my life. One night I literally stayed up after getting home from class to think of how I could create income or learn a skill that would help me to NEVER be in this position again. 

During my “Unemployment season” I found myself styling special events. I started with my younger brother and sister asking for my opinion on what to wear to prom. I loved the feeling I got from picking out colors schemes, matching shoes with attire, and helping people feel 100% their best for a special event. It did helped me realize that styling people for special events fed into my creativity. Thru my styling I realized there was a problem in the footwear industry. I would always find shoes that I liked but there would be one thing wrong with them, either the color or fabric. This was the creation of my first business idea. But strictly shoes is not what God had for me.

Fast forward to 2017, I had come back from my second military deployment, bought a house, and had a cute boyfriend that was pretty smart so I kept him around. October of that year, that cute smart boyfriend asked me to be his wife. We were engaged and that was the beginning of NAK Design Studio. I knew I wanted something different for my wedding but I could not find it, so i created it. Now here we are creating and curating for all the other women out there that also want that "Something Different" for their wedding.
