Kai is an inspirational girl boss, owner of My Lady Garden, and the hottest florist right now, all at the age of 25. She is awesome and works alongside us at The Factory in Dalston.
Tell us a bit about yourself and your self-made business?
I am 25! I moved to London when I was 18, and found my way into floristry by chance! I studied for a diploma in Floral Design and interned everywhere I could, then freelanced everywhere I could in London until I moved to New York! I slowly built a customer base while freelancing there, and moved back to London for a job which fell through. I then startedMy Lady Garden! It's been a hustle, and when COVID hit we turned the events and wedding-based business into an online store. It's taken off from there! Super proud of where it's going, there are some wild projects in the works and I love how creative this craft is!
How do we know each other?
We were introduced to each other through The Factory, with both our studios being based here. We bonded over your love for Ranunculus and Aperol Spritz!
When we first met you didn't own a pair of jeans or any denim in that fact, tell us how your relationship with denim changed?
Your jeans have completely changed my relationship to denim! I had never found a pair that I liked on me, nor had I found the right shade...and now, I have three pairs! I actually think I wear an item of your denim 4-5 days a week... I love each item so much!
Favourites?
My favourites are my denim jacket and my Light / Black Contrast Straight Leg Jeans! ABSOLUTELY LOVE EM.
