Don't be scared! Dare to be SIMPLY YOU with a new women's collection by Simply Cecily

Simply Cecily is back with a new Spring 2013 collection! This women's clothing line fuses the traditionally elegant nature of West African women’s style with the contemporary flair of American design. The collection includes 9 pieces that will be sold in boutiques throughout the country and online via Simply Cecily's website.
Where we are
- We bought the fabric for the collection during a recent trip to Dakar, Senegal.
- The patterns and samples are currently being made at a manufacturing company in NYC.
- Simply Cecily's website is currently being designed and will be launched September 2012.
- The next step is to shop the collection around to boutiques throughout the country and then we will go into production in November 2012.
This is where we need your support. The pre-production and production costs are extremely high! Each pattern and sample cost $400 times 9 designs... we're talking a nice pretty penny! The money raised through Kickstarter will go towards the direct costs of producing the new line just in time for spring 2013.
Kickstarter Gifts
We have some lovely gifts for your support. The pieces in the collection will be available February 2013. The limited edition tote bag and lappa (wrap skirt) will only be available through the Kickstarter campaign. So don't miss out!
INTERNATIONAL Backers: Please add $20 for shipping costs.
Special thanks to those who made this Kickstarter campaign possible: Ali Bavugamenshi (video editing), Vincent Williams (videography), Junior Ntakirutimana (Photography), Tausha Marshall (Model) and Siccola Clark (Make-up).
