Jeweller Layla Kaisi Built Her Brand via Instagram

At 28, New Zealand-based Layla Kaisi, founder and creative director behind five-year old company Layla Kaisi Collection (LKC), has achieved a level of success many young entrepreneurs dream about, Lauren Mowery writes for Forbes.

With a focus on ethical stones, storytelling through custom design, and marketing through Instagram, Iraq-born Kaisi has quickly expanded her sales world from beyond her design studio in Auckland.

Layla Kaisi Collection bills itself as a “design house challenging all notions of fine jewellery, showcasing designs never thought possible, and telling customer stories through bespoke creations” she said during a recent Forbes interview.

“Instagram has been the biggest driving force for our brand, allowing clients worldwide to discover us in ways that traditional retail could never replicate.”
