Episode 14 - Nick Bower
from Made It Here Podcast Hosted by Kelo Okeke
Nick Bower’s journey started with him leaving apartheid South Africa as a kid to study art in London, mainly because he didn’t see himself wearing a suit and tie to work everyday and this marked the beginning of a journey that would see him working with fashion legends like Valentino and Versace in Italy and then moving to California right at the time surf culture was changing the fashion landscape into what would later be known as Streetwear. Nick would go on to work with various seminal streetwear companies and spend 14 years as the head designer of the legendary Stussy brand. He’s ultimately built a career that has seen him listed as one of the 25 most powerful people in streetwear globally. Nick’s journey is one of taking chances, betting on yourself and riding the wave (quite literally), to wherever fate takes you.
