About

Hi, there. We’re K Gioia Italiana.

We opened in 2020 with a simple promise: elegant pieces that celebrate individuality and feel effortless to wear. Founded by New Orleans–born, Metairie-raised designer Kimberly Haynes, K Gioia (“gioia” means joy) is about confidence you can put on—timeless silhouettes, thoughtful details, and quality you’ll love season after season.

WHO WE ARE

Meet the Designer

I’m Kimberly Haynes, the owner and creator of K Gioia Italiana. At 39, I stepped out on faith to build a brand I truly love—and to show my children what hard work and perseverance look like. My designs are rooted in elegance and made for real life: pieces that move with you, highlight your uniqueness, and bring a little joy to every day.

OUR STORY

Trendy Tradition

I love fashion, but I love lasting fashion even more. K Gioia pieces are made to outlive the moment—versatile, well-made, and designed to be styled again and again. From fabric choice to final stitch, we focus on fit, feel, and durability so what you buy today still feels special years from now.
