Teaching Oneself (T.O.S.)
Designer: Jahvasha "Jiffy" Johnson
The name that holds great significance, my nickname 'Jiffy,' derives from the Swahili name 'Jifunza,' which means 'teaching oneself.' It was a perfect fit! 'Teaching OneSelf' (T.O.S.) was born.
Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, and then moving to Milwaukee, WI, I was surrounded by multicultural influences. These environments helped cultivate my imagination and gave life to my ideas as an artist and model. My goal is to inspire others to discover that one thing or those things that drive their creativity and enable them to express themselves authentically. As the worlds of art intersected, a new venture in fashion spoke to my heart.
There are no limits to what we can achieve as living, breathing beings. Pursue what brings you happiness, and the rest will become history!

Dequincy Atterberry
Designer: Dequincy Atterberry
Dequincy Lavar Atterberry was born in Charleston, S.C. in March of 1990. His parents, Doris and Eugene Atterberry nurtured this young designer and equipped him with a spirit of relentless fortitude that destined him for success. His humble upbringing in the rural town of Dorchester SC, along with siblings, his brother, Quenton, and his sister, Ladovia, allowed Dequincy the time and opportunity to unveil his innate creative ability. His love of singing and dancing substantiated his self-confidence and unknowingly, that love led him to pursue a career in fashion design.
In 2013, Dequincy graduated with honors from Bauder College in Atlanta GA with a degree in fashion design. That accomplishment led to an amazing opportunity to intern with an established company in Georgia. As such, that opportunity propelled him to start designing full-time. Today, the DequincyLavar label is one of the new, up-and-coming fashion icons in the industry.
