01Who we are
Nivek is where fashion, culture, opportunity and community meet: a stage that celebrates emerging talent and helps Black women connect, build relationships and grow their businesses nationwide.
We are a fashion and cultural production company. Our work is the live experience: runway productions, immersive entertainment and collaborations that turn a fashion show into a cultural event.
Inspired by iconic showcases and built for today, Nivek brings designers, performers, artists, brands and communities together in experiences that are visually striking, culturally relevant and deeply felt.
02Driven by passion
Bigger than
the runway.
For Kevin Cockfield, Nivek is rooted in a love of fashion, of creativity and of the power of bringing people together. The productions are extraordinary by design, but the vision reaches further.
Nivek is a place where Black women connect, build relationships, showcase their businesses and expand their networks across the country, celebrated for their style and empowered to open doors for one another.

To empower underrepresented voices in fashion and culture with world-class experiences that celebrate creativity, inspire innovation and create meaningful opportunity.

convictions.

Creativity, celebrated
Every production honors the people who make the work, from the designer to the stylist to the performer.
-
ii.
Diversity, by design
Our stages reflect the full range of voices in fashion and culture, starting with those too often left out of the room.
-
iii.
Talent, elevated
Emerging designers and artists deserve a world-class platform. We build one and invite them onto it.

Community, connected
A great show ends; a great network keeps growing. We bring people together so opportunity can travel between them.
