Behind the Brand: Thrilla Seven
The "Thrillest". There's something to be said about a young woman who possesses ambition and a positive purpose. She has a different look, she carries herself with a different level of maturity and the energy she gives off is a rarity honey!

Enter Cierra Jaye'
This young lady who also doubles as "Miss Thrilla" is a force to be reckoned with! She is in the process of perfecting a fabulous brand that goes by the name, Thrilla Seven. Cierra’s brand includes everything from designing to event planning and even visual merchandising. The 22-year-old is also a public relations specialist, adding yet another feather to her already decorated cap.
What's in a name. When asked where the name Thrilla Seven came from, Cierra told me: " Thrilla Seven is two words that separately have different meanings but together, create something beautiful. Thrilla: daring, undaunted and raw. Seven: charmingly classic and timeless. Together, Thrilla Seven embraces anyone who enjoys wearing pieces that take confidence and are endlessly comfortable!"
The Midas Touch. From her events to her hand-crafted clothes, everything Cierra touches turns to GOLD! Earlier this year she put together an event entitled "Let Them Eat Cake" which focused on empowering women through networking and thought provoking testimonials. The entire event was decorated in antique white and gold furnishings, giving a sort of vintage-"y" feel. Adding to the Marie Antoinette-inspired theme,the ladies chatted over tea and adorable little treats like macaroons and finger sandwiches. In the room filled with 100 business savvy young women, Cierra spoke alongside other young entrepreneurs, giving guests something that couldn't' be bought: unbridled inspiration.

The New Jersey native puts those same magical hands to work on her amazing garments and graphic designs! I got the chance to ask her a few questions about the work that goes into her amazing design skills and this is what Miss Thrilla had to say:
"I can say that I am a one-woman- show because I sew every stitch, tag each label & create my own web design, promo imaging & advertising! But I wouldn't be where I am without the support & work I have been able to get done with many creatives since the start. Luckily, I now have an intern/assistant for the Summer and an official brand photographer so that's a blessing! I hope to have a Thrilla Team in the near future, definitely!"
