Nina Nikicio is the founder and CEO of Nikicio, a Jakarta-based Ready-to-Wear fashion label. The brand is widely known as the beacon of cool in the local fashion scene, worn by celebrities and trendsetters alike. Nina is also the proud mother of a beautiful baby girl who loves blueberries. While the brand itself is created on May 2007 by then a 22-year-old Nina Nikicio, when she came back home to Indonesia. She always believe that local products should be able to compete with international ready to wear labels. There were no local ready to wear in sight back then, all designers are ventured in couture or wedding gowns. She challenged the common norm by creating a ready to wear label with an online based store, experting in free marketing by using social media, and casting her friends as models. On January 2013, Nikicio joined venture with The Goods Dept which increases her production capacity. Recently, Nina appointed a new creative director, Abraham Dewanggana, so she can focus on the company management. She never expected to lead a company, but a passion for great design and frustration with the lack of innovation in the local scene led her to build Nikicio. The brand currently manufactures all the clothes at several factories all around Indonesia and China. They outsource the best factories based on their capabilities and we visit the factories often.
