Kenley Collins

Born and raised in Pompano Beach, Kenley is the youngest daughter of a tugboat captain. She began her career in fashion at the age of 16, when she started buying vintage clothing and reconstructing them for herself and friends. After graduating from Florida State University with a marketing degree, Kenley found herself in New York City with a sales job for Missy Wear. No longer than a week later, she was promoted to a design position where she was able to blossom in the industry. She was a finalist on Bravo’s hit TV series, Project Runway. Since then, she has been working on her own line, doing custom wedding and party dresses, selling several, now trendy, head pieces world-wide off her website (www.kenleycollins.com) and teaching in her spare time.
