Kahri

Growing up on a farm in northeast Iowa, where fashion is of little concern, KahriAnne Kerr broke the mold. Tired of generic mall clothes, KahriAnne started to make her own clothing in high school and taught herself how to design and sew. In Spring 2002 Kahri was first showcased on the runway. KahriAnne presented her first women's collection with great success. Her school's Fashion Design Department named KahriAnne the "Most Promising Designer for 2001-2002". KahriAnne moved back to Iowa to set up her first mini store, Kreations by Kahri, in Summer 2002. A local boutique picked up Kahri and soon KahriAnne became a local celebrity, with her designs quickly selling out. 

KahriAnne headed to NYC in August 2003 to attend FIT. KahriAnne then began to sell her collection in NYC stores and e-boutiques. Kahri also set up a temporary mini-store in SoHo, as a part of the designer collective, Burrow, in Spring 2005. After FIT, KahriAnne focused on designing and selling her collection, as well as working various design jobs in the fashion industry. 

The line has grown and evolved over the years to include millinery and handbags to coordinate with the hip, funky, rocker chic women's contemporary clothing line. The new diffusion clothing line KA by KahriAnne Kerr was launched for Fall 2010 for the rebellious fashionista on a budget.
Kahri has been sold at over 20 boutiques across the US, England, Scotland, and Israel, as well as 30 online boutiques. Kahri has also been featured in many fashion shows with celebrity hosts and performers, on shows such as MTV, Fuse TV, The Late Show with David Letterman, Jerseylicious, Cream, as well as many magazines, websites and newspapers, such as Interview, NY Magazine, InStyle, Vibe, US Weekly, Zink, Venuszine, WWD, The Today Show, DailyCandy, and AM New York. Celebrities such as Keri Hilson, Fergie, Aubrey from Danity Kane, Brandi Carlisle, Paris Hilton, Miss Universe 2010, and Miss USA 2010 have rocked Kahri gear on and off of the red carpet.
