Meet Katja Wafaa Outaghani of kb mode

Today we’d like to introduce you to Katja Wafaa Outaghani

Katja Wafaa, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I was studying mathematics in Paris and in the meantime I started to work as a model for Dim.
After 2 years of Math’s Sup and Math’s Spe in Sainte Geneviève, I decided to go to LA where my uncle was living.
I thought (and I was naive) that I could stay with him and my cousin John.
But not .
Finally I could start modeling for Guess which paid also my studies at Stanford.
After a while I decided to go to Morocco to open a factory of 450 workers to produce lingerie.
We opened several shops all around the world and one in Rodéo Drive.
But as a scientist, I was missing my mathematics and I just invented intelligent and washable (then sustainable) panties for incontinence and endometriosis.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It was not smooth at all.
I was really like Don Quichotte fighting against giant windmills!
I slept in the streets, I work very hard, I re started my whole life from zero.
Some men wanted to rob my business and I had to fight against them as a warrior.
It went so far that I got my first stroke in 2017, the second in 2019 and the third six months ago.
I m still alive and still thinking (thanks God) with my brains and fighting…

We’ve been impressed with kb mode, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
A huge factory with 3 floors : a whole building full with 450 women workers.
Kb mode and Bodylove lingerie had such a success that the moroccan government gave us help and we became “champion Rawaj” in 2013.
The EBERD also helped us as a successful industry business owned by a woman.
In Paris we were compared to La Perla and Agent Provocateur.
We had our fashion shows on fashion TV.
