Clara’s Closet is named after my beloved Grandma. Clara was originally from Georgia but moved to Chicago in the 1950's for better opportunities. She loved the “Windy City” so much that she remained in Chicago until her passing in 2017. In 2015, I relocated to Chicago from South Korea. I love Chicago just like my Grandma. Clara was classy, emulated confidence, and loved to travel. Kenya, Egypt, and China are just a few of the many places she visited. My Mom, Avondale, and I are travelers as well, having visited over fifty countries combined. My Mom creates the custom knitted pieces at Clara's Closet. We realize that our apparel isn’t for everyone, and that’s what makes us special. We wanted to express our Black pride, love of fashion, and travel. We are so appreciative that our creativity has been embraced. Thank you so much!
