Harriet’s Alter Ego...

Inside the Harriet’s Alter Ego.
Some of Hekima Hapa's unique designs.

Cast your mind back to 1999. Can you remember what you thought you’d be doing in 2006? I was just starting my Bachelors degree and thought by now I’d have a burgeoning career as a fashion editor for a major magazine! At least Hekima Hapa and Ngozi Odita, owners of hip boutique Harriet’s Alter Ego, are well on their way to becoming the next retail phenomenon. Starting in ‘99 as a small vendor stall in New York City, the edgy and always unique line now resides in Park Slope, a trendy neighboorhood in Brooklyn…

“Inspired by the textiles, detailing, and functionality of indigenous dress, designer Hekima Hapa and chief operating officer Ngozi Odita are bringing cultured couture to the streets of New York.”

Not only can shoppers find original pieces handcrafted in the store’s upstairs loft, they can also visit the beauty bar where customers recieve complimentary make overs and consultations. And while you’re there you can also browse their gallery space which showcases local artists. They even offer sewing workshops! Famous clients include India. Arie, Talib Kweli, M.I.A, Mos Def, BET and Yerba Buena, so head down there and see what all the fuss is about for yourselves.
