Ackeilia Caine, fashion designer and CEO of Trendzy by Ackeilia, is celebrating the success of her first custom bridal gown as she expands her fashion footprint with more custom pieces. The gown, designed for bride Oralee Bras Fyffe, featured floral appliqué on a nude base with white accents. Caine, a former ‘Mission Catwalk’ contestant, drew on her experience creating custom pieces to construct the multi-layered convertible gown, including a reception dress.
Coming from a family of seamstresses, Caine has always had a passion for fashion. She recently released her 2025 swimsuit collection, Soleil d’Or, featuring golds and browns in mesh and spandex. Balancing her business and family life, Caine manages by prioritizing orders and organizing her work around timelines.
With a 3-week-old and a 2-year-old at home, Caine is thankful for the support of her village, including her aunt who runs a daycare program. Despite the challenges, Caine remains determined to succeed in the fashion industry and explore the bridal arena further. She hopes to create more wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses in the future, inspired by the success of her first custom bridal gown.
