Nicole Joseph started it all when she decided to make something she could wear for carnival in Trinidad. We all know how costly jumping carnival could be—too expensive—even in your own country. Still, that doesn’t deter carnival enthusiasts who want to join a band and enjoy the experience. She made a quick decision to make her own wire bra and one picture online set everything else off.
“I’ve always been a creative person. Even as a kid,” said Nicole. “I was into beauty and fashion, and I love carnival. I like to work with my hands, especially if it saves me money.”
After some in-depth research, help from fellow bra makers and added support from celebrities, BodyB SLU was created.
It’s interesting to know how consumers react to her product. “Business has been overwhelming from inception. I have way more demand than I could supply, so business is booming,” said Nicole.
In the near future, Nicole wants to branch off from carnival and provide services all year round, possibly in the form of perfume or lipstick.
