We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Vickie Garcia. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Vickie below.
Hi Vickie , thanks for joining us today. Let’s jump to the end – what do you want to be remembered for?
I’m hoping to build a legacy that goes beyond just clothing. With Kilos Clothing, I aim to create a brand that resonates deeply with people by embodying authenticity, resilience, and community. I want Kilos to be known not just for its style, but for empowering people to express themselves boldly, to stand up for who they are, and to celebrate the culture they come from. My vision is for Kilos to inspire future generations, leaving behind a legacy of creativity and self-confidence, especially within communities that might not always see themselves represented in mainstream fashion. I just want to be remembered as someone who pushed the culture forward and was unapologetic about it .
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
My Name Is Vickie Garcia, the founder and visionary behind Kilos Clothing, a streetwear line that’s about flipping narratives and redefining what it means to hustle. Inspired by my brother’s 17-year sentence for selling drugs, I decided to take that experience and turn it into something positive. Instead of selling kilos of coke, she’s now selling kilos of clothes—a powerful shift that reflects resilience, transformation, and the strength to rise above challenging circumstances.
Kilos Clothing is more than just fashion; it’s a statement. With each piece, I create clothing that speaks to individuality and represents a reimagined hustle, one that honors the grit and drive of the communities she cares about. From essentials to bold statement pieces, Kilos Clothing empowers people to embrace who they are and where they come from.
What sets Kilos apart is this authenticity and the journey behind it. I’m most proud of how my brand has connected with people, becoming a part of their lives and stories. My message to followers, fans, and potential clients is clear: Kilos Clothing is here to inspire self-confidence, celebrate resilience, and help others flip the narrative for themselves—leaving a legacy in the streetwear world that’s about hope, reinvention, and empowerment.
