Nicole M. Swartz Inducted into Worldwide Who's Who for Excellence in Fashion Design

    WEST HARTFORD, CT, April 2, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Nicole M. Swartz, Owner and Founder of Freak by Nikki LLC., has been recognized by Worldwide Who's Who for showing dedication, leadership and excellence in fashion design.

At the age of 15, Ms. Swartz is already an accomplished entrepreneur with her own company. "Ever since I was little, I've always wanted to design," she explains on her website, www.freakbynikki.com. She became involved in her profession because of her childhood interest in architecture, fashion, and design. She started sketching her first clothing designs in sixth grade and created the unique FREAK logo. "In middle school, it seemed to me that all the 'cool' kids had the same brand of clothes. They all looked the same, too," she states. With this in mind, she aspired to create a clothing line that was "different, affordable, and stylish at the same time."

Guided by her tenacity and supportive mother, Ms. Swartz established Freak by Nikki LLC, an online retail store that sells T-shirts, hats, hoodies, sweatpants and shorts for men and women. All of her products are adorned with the now trademarked FREAK brand. The company presently offers screen-printed and embroidered items of clothing. Ms. Swartz always ensures that her clothing is made well with high-quality materials.

Additionally, Ms. Swartz specializes in pencil sketches. She is still in high school and cares about giving back to others. Therefore, a portion of her proceeds from specialty items is donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation and the National Military Family Foundation. Looking ahead, Ms. Swartz plans to expand her clothing line to include items such as accessories and footwear. She also hopes to grow her company to have a national presence, open a store, and be recognized for her work in the community, her school, and business.
