About

My name is LaNaya, and I am currently a high school student with a passion for fashion! I want to create outfits and clothes for people to help them feel comfortable and confident. I know from my personal experiences that I have struggled to find clothing that not only fits me but makes me feel confident, I end up having to alter them myself, or they fall into the abyss (aka my closet). I want to help others prevent that problem and create custom clothing for them! As well as help people find their style without the hassle of buying and trying a bunch of random clothes!

Problem

Many people struggle to find their style and find affordable clothing that fits their style.

Solution

That’s why we created Bis Sis’ Closet, a way to get your big sis’ advice. You can get style help and custom clothing!
