Iona McCreath is a designer and model who has a degree in Sociology from London School of Economics and has a foundation diploma in Art and Design from Central Saint Martin’s. She is the daughter of renowned fashion designer Ann McCreath. Iona has apprenticed in the fashion industry from birth, being born at the same time as her mother founded KikoRomeo, and appearing on the runway with her mother even as a baby.
Her fashion journey has taken her through the professions of modelling, sales and designing. As a model she has featured in Coca Cola billboards as well as TVC’s as well as runway shows and fashion campaigns. KikoRomeo, meaning “Adam’s Apple” in Kiswahili, is now co-designed by mother-daughter duo Ann and Iona McCreath from Nairobi, Kenya.
The heritage lifestyle brand was founded in 1996 to stimulate employment through trade and to encourage appreciation of traditional crafts.
KikoRomeo is widely credited with transforming the Kenyan fashion industry and has mentored many designers and artisans over the last two decades.
Iona who had her designs showcased at the #LWFD runaway would be sharing her experience at #LFDW with us live via our Instagram platform. #OSGLIVESERIES
