All About Jamileh Kamran

For more than 55 years Jamileh Kamran, owner of Jamileh Kamran Designs, has dedicated her career to fashion. Along the way she has not only made a name for herself locally, but also nationwide. Kamran’s philosophy “you cannot find two persons alike” is evident in her approach to each design.

Kamran’s impressive lists of clients include attorneys, judges, business owners and politicians. “These groups require professional outfits that function as an investment in their careers,” notes Kamran. It can take a minimum of three weeks for clients to receive their final pieces, because, as Kamran acknowledges, “you will never find my creations being mass produced.” Ms. Vann Ackers of Little Rock, who has been a loyal client and close friend for over four years, cannot sing Kamran’s praises enough.

“I look at every aspect of your life, whether it is personal or business, 

to design an individual style that’s right for you.”

“Four years ago I came home from a trip to Paris and came to Jamileh to do alterations on a couture dress only to discover Paris was in my back yard,” said Ms. Ackers.“ It does not matter if it is formal or informal, dresses or pants; Jamileh’s clothes are always perfect for what I need.” Ackers contributes Kamran’s success to her hands-on approach.“Jamileh personally selects all the fabrics in her store, consults with her client every step of the way, and is hands-on in the in the design process,” says Ackers." Her clothes are one of kind and just absolutely beautiful.”​
