This week, Kate has on a special guest that you may have known from the world of bridal design, but given an ongoing legal battle with her former employer, she can no longer publicly identify with her given name and was reintroduced to the world as Cheval in August 2022 (and her namesake line of glam footwear @sheischeval was introduced in October 2022). As the friendly designer and "America’s bridesmaid" on TLC’s, “Say Yes to the Dress,” she brought over 10 bridal product lines to market, dressed noteworthy female icons like Dove Cameron, Chrissy Teigen, and Carrie Underwood, and became one of the most sought-after luxury bridal designers in the world (VOGUE’S TOP TEN). After 9 years of working under a very one-sided employment contract, her former employer sued her in federal court and gained control of what she believed were her personal social media accounts. She resigned in December 2020 and under the current preliminary injunction, she is prevented from using her own birth name in any business or commerce or even to publicly identify herself. She is also not receiving commission for her designs that are still being sold, and she is restricted from identifying herself as a designer to the trade in which her former employer competes until August of 2027.The public support has inspired her next mission in launching a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit foundation that provides resources to better protect the interests of young women and creatives during the formative years of their career. She is currently writing a memoir and rebranding under SHE IS CHEVAL.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSFind your forever pieces at jennikayne.com. And get 15% off your first order when you use code BETHEREINFIVE at checkout.Head to bookofthemonth.com to check out their book picks and use BETHEREINFIVE to get your first book for $5.Prose is the healthy hair regimen with your name all over it.
