Becoming ReaLekay: A Designer’s Leap of Faith

Dumelang, fam! 👋🏾

I’m Rea, founder and designer behind ReaLekay. Lol… I honestly can’t believe I’m finally doing this.

Welcome to my website, a digital diary where my imagination, creativity and faith collide. Everything you see here was once just a dream in my head… and now? It’s starting to come to life.

This is only the beginning. I’m still learning, growing, going through all the highs and lows that come with building something from scratch but one thing I know for sure, I’m proud of how far ReaLekay has come.

You’re stepping into a very personal part of my world, a space not many people have had access to. As a young fashion designer with big dreams, I hope to watch this brand reach its fullest potential and more than anything, I pray that God continues to guide me every step of the way.

To my support system — Mama, Retha and Rego thank you for being my backbone. To my mentor, Bonolo Mashilo —thank you for seeing something in me and helping me start this journey.

And Papa… I know you’re watching from heaven. I hope I’m making you proud every single day.

To the future, I’m excited for the woman I’m becoming and for the version of ReaLekay that’s still unfolding.

So here’s to faith, fashion and fierce dreams. May God continue to bless this vision.

Welcome to ReaLekay.
