Karyn Jenius
In August of 2005, she created her urban line, with her influences and passions: Music, Art, Fashion, and Ministry. To preserve the authenticity of her designs, she made each piece as couture to symbolize it’s individuality. She named the line “Kaima.” which stems from the Arabic word “Naima” which means soft and gentle, then adding a “K” for a personal flair; finally adding a period to the end of the name to symbolize a Statement; thus creating “Kaima.”. In 2006, Karyn Jenius represented Kaima. in such events such as the 2006 All-Star Weekend, Houston’s The Breakfast Klub “Kross the Street Market”, and Exclusive launches. She has also spread Kaima. in cities such as St. Louis, Washington D.C., Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York, and Connecticut. Kaima, has been seen on Actress Essence Atkins of WB’s “Half and Half”, Neo Soul and R&B Singer Dwele; DC/New York Emcee Mash Comp of Dumhi’s Crew; Five time grammy nominated singer Musiq Soulchild; MAC and freelance artist Shant’e; and Dj, Drummer, Philanthropist Questlove of the Grammy Award winning group The Roots.Kaima. Inducts a new flare in the fashion structure Representing a Neo Edge of Couture:The fashion world has always dazzled us with it’s jewels known as couture. From Fashion Week in New York, Tokyo, and Milan. During the illustrious Couture Week in Paris, fashion lovers alike have always wanted to own their own neck plunging "couture”. “Couture”, or more presumably “Haute Couture”, has been the high point of fashion, with exclusive yet one of a kind designs, customized and made for the demure, svelte, and high profile clientele. even the nouveau riche reach out their hands for the top end designs. one cant imagine the monetary donations that couture brings home. Houston; however has created a new form of couture, an edgy but classier couture in the form of a line named “Kaima.”. Created By twenty two year old artist and designer Karyn Jenius, she infuses her fashion influences with music, art, and ministry. Commemorating her love for designers such as Christian Louboutin, Yves St. Laurent [rive gauche], Betsy Johnson, and Ralph Lauren, she collaborates her influences by creating distinct and exciting pieces.To Contact Us:Karyn jenius [Creator/Head Designer] [email protected] Vega [Admin/Fashion Events Coordinator] [email protected] Dickens [General & Couture Pricing Inquiry] [email protected] King [press/media inquries] Live Wire PR [email protected] Allen [Premiere make up artist] Make up by Shante [email protected] THE ONLINE STORE @www.kaimastore.ecrater.com

Sounds Like: I dont really sound like anyone... i mean i cant really sing, i may carry a note, but i aint no mariah carey. But on the real i made this page to make fun of all the damn music pages, and all the band request that i got, and those stubbleheads never spoke to me, lastly, they dont have a page for artist, so this was the next best thing. I aint tripping tho, cause i like music, so it's all good. YO....IM an artist... not really a musician... i write, i design...im just somewhat fly...still trying to get to real fly level...yanowaimeen son?
