}}Anita Beryl Ahikiriza, commonly known as Anita Beryl, is a businesswoman, fashion designer and fashionista in Uganda. She is the creative director of Beryl Qouture, a Ugandan fashion house. The Ugandan magazine, Satisfashion Uganda, named Beryl one of "The 40 Movers and Shakers of 2016", in December 2016.[1]

Background and education

She was born Anita Ahikiriza on 11 January 1986 in Bushenyi town, Bushenyi District in the Western Region of Uganda.[2] She is the firstborn to Jean Ahabwe, a teacher and Reverend Emmanuel Ahabwe.[2]

She attended "Masheruka Modern Primary School", for her elementary schooling. She then transferred to Bweranyangi Girls' Senior Secondary School for her O-Level and A-Level studies. She was admitted to Uganda Christian University, in Mukono, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Education, with English and English literature, as the two majors. Later, she attended UberGlam School of Fashion Design, in Gauteng, South Africa. She also studied at the "School of French Fashion" in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.[3][4]

Career

While still an undergraduate at Uganda Christian University, she taught as a teacher-trainee at Kyambogo College School, a process that she found uncomfortable.[3] Following her transition from teacher to fashion designer, she established Beryl Qouture, based in a shopping mall in Kabalagala, a neighborhood in the Makindye Division in the south-eastern part of Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city.[1] Her label is invited to participate in local, regional and international fashion shows including "Accra Fashion Week", in Ghana and "Swahili Fashion Week" in Tanzania, in 2016 alone.[1] In 2017, she was invited to showcase her design at the World Fashion Week 2017, in Kuala Lampur, Malaysia.[4] Her expanding client base includes clients in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, the United Kingdom and other countries.[1][3][4] She has also showcased her design at fashion shows in Nigeria, Addis Ababa, Barcelona and Mombasa.[2]
