Why Choose Us?

People often ask me how i come up with my ideas. Well sometimes i go to bed and ideas come to me in my dreams, sometimes a random yet inspirational conversation i have with my siblings or a vision comes to my mind.

There's nothing i believe in more than to be authentic in everything i do.To pay attention to detail and to stay true to what makes me creative.Its very important to leave all my customers happy and satisfied. It makes it more worth it to know I did something for someone.

About Us

Sishwati Marie is the name behind my fashion design house. Sishwati is my middle name which I inherited from my late grandmother who was a pattern maker and seamstress, she always made me garments. Marie short for Maria a name I inherited from my late mother after she died.She was a journalist and the most stylish & driven woman I ever knew.She is definitely my biggest inspiration.My mother and my grandmother are the kind of woman who inspire me to create; fearless,strong,beautiful,passionate,outspoken and both very funny women . I knew a lot about style cause as a little girl I watched my mother dress up for work almost everyday and she would let me pick out her outfits. 

When I grew up I went to study fashion design at the FEDISA fashion institute in Cape Town. I didn't get to complete my studies for financial reasons, but non the less I took what i learnt and put it to good use. I still plan on getting my degree in Fashion.
