Kozbyworld LLC Presents Zubair Fashion Collection at Hartford City Hall

On June 30th, 2012, designer, Kozby of Kozbyworld LLC will reintroduce his design house as Zubair in the Zubair Fashion Show at Hartford City Hall.


Zubair's creative direction is overseen by Kozby whose humble beginnings are deeply rooted in his native homeland Nigeria. There, he spent a good amount of his childhood days with his grandmother who taught him the basics of fashion design. More than twenty years later, Kozby is an established designer in Nigeria and is now breaking into the fashion industry in the States. His continuous seek for perfection is consistent in all his collections as well as his special attention to details and client satisfaction.

In 2010, he showcased his collection at the Africa Fashion Week in New York City. The media and afro-fashion clientele loved his collection that he received an invitation to feature his collection the following year. In 2011, Kozby took his positive attitude and eye catching collection to the U.S Virgin Islands Fashion Week where he was voted top 3 designers of the week! At only 31 years of age, Kozby's accomplishment speaks highly of his abilities as a designer as well as his future contribution to the fashion industry.

After some considerable amount of success in 2011, Kozby made a decision to reintroduce himself to the fashion industry as Zubair. In the Arabic language, Zubair means “The Leader in Front,” and with this in mind, Kozby plans on introducing new and exciting collections in 2012. He wishes to share his designs with everyone which led him to share the runway with 3 talented designers who come from different backgrounds in the fashion industry. Zubair Fashion Show will include the local based Hartford Denim Company, Ricky Trendy Da‘Vista 2012 eyewear collection, and John Ashford Shoe Collection.
