Well, 2025 Is Here – Bigger Intentions & Bolder Goals for KENNEDY!

by Fiona Kennedy January 7, 2025

Hello my lovelies, guess who's back on her blogging game! Promise to try keep on it this year 🤞

Who knows where 2025 came from but she is here and I've got some major goal setting to action. If you’ve been keeping up to date on Instagram, you’ll already know that I’ve been plotting some exciting moves for this year. But for those who haven’t caught all the updates, here’s the full breakdown. I’m putting it all out there in black and white, to hold myself accountable, and I can’t wait to take you all along for the ride.

Getting the brand and myself out there more

At my AW24 fashion show 'The Goth Ball', I made a promise to all of you in my zine that 2025 would be about pushing the boundaries and stepping into the spotlight. I’ve always believed in creating an inclusive space where everyone can express their alternative selves.

And as a size and all gender inclusive brand (making clothes for UK 6-30), It's more important than ever to get KENNEDY seen. So my first goal for 2025? To make myself, my brand, and my clothing as visible as possible - whether that’s in person or through other methods.

Pop-Up Events, New Locations, and Major Exposure

The dream is simple: get my clothing in front of more of you in real life. But don't worry, you'll still find me at Barras Market every weekend.

I’m super excited to announce that I’ve already ticked off a return to The Scottish Tattoo Convention and my debut at the Big North Tattoo Show for 2025. And that’s just the beginning! It’s looking highly likely that I’ll be heading appearing in the USA and hopefully making stops in London and a few key European cities too. Still trying to get those festival vendor slots though ...

I’ll keep you posted on all of that, but it’s definitely shaping up to be a big year for travel and pop-up events.

Collaboration Central – Let’s Work Together

This year, I’m all about collaboration. So if you’re a model, photographer, makeup artist, hairstylist, videographer, or any kind of creative, let’s work together! I want to team up with incredible talents to push boundaries and create content that feeds mine and my customers little goth souls.

Seasonal Drops & Staple Pieces – Building Your Perfect Alternative Wardrobe

As you know, I’m always working to bring fresh designs to the table. This year, I’m focusing on creating seasonal drops that’ll keep your wardrobe constantly needing more KENNEDY. Starting with a little release ahead of Valentine's Day.

Plus, I’m planning to drop some more staple pieces that will form the backbone of any alternative wardrobe. Think classic black sheer pieces that you can mix and match.

And yes, you can soon rely on me for footwear too! I'll be stocking shoes for the first time in 2025, handpicking styles that'll best suit my designs. We’re talking big, stompy goth boots - because you know, they're a necessity.

Podcasting? Maybe!

This is still a bit of a “we’ll see” idea, but I’m toying with stepping into the world of podcasting this year. I’ve got a lot of thoughts to share, and I think it could be a fun way to connect with you all in a different format.

Save the Date – AW25 Fashion Show

Mark your calendars for September 11th, 2025, because that’s when the AW25 Show is happening. I'm going so much bigger than last time so trust me, you won’t want to miss it. More details coming soon, but start getting excited. This is going to be one hell of a ride.

Stay Connected with us on social

If you want to follow my progress and get the latest updates on all of these plans (plus sneak peeks, behind-the-scenes moments, and more), make sure you’re following me on my socials. I’ll be documenting everything, and I can’t wait to take you on this journey with me.

So, here’s to 2025 – a year of growth, collaboration, visibility, and new adventures. I’m ready for what’s ahead, and I hope you are too!

Best wishes,
Mother Bat (Fiona) x
