By day, Jamila is the founder and Brand Director of Kahmune, a london-based luxury footwear brand designed to match the skin tones of all women with she started with the help of her father. Unable to find products for women with darker skin tones, the ghanian-american founder decided it was about time for a change. “It’s time all women have ‘nude’ products that celebrate the diversity of the human complexion.” And so Kahmune was born.
The idea for Jamela A. Acheampong’s U.K.-based nude shoewear brand Kahmune was birthed out of her own futile search to find clothing and shoes to match her darker skin tone.
