GADS brings to life colorful African print fabrics creating all of the pole wear and street wear that you didn't even know you needed. That is, until you see her beautiful products and know there is a special place in your dance bag for everyone of her creations. Shoe covers are the one specialty product us high heel loving gals need plenty of, and with all of the vibrant colors and patterns you are sure to find just the right set for you cutest outfit. These are all handmade by the lovely (and talented) Shari, owner of GADS. Each product is available until supplies run out, and then will never be duplicated. So, if you are shopping these shoe covers make sure snatch up every pair that catches your eye, because you won't see them again once they are gone.
Check out the story of GADS:
Sometimes in life you have a plan and sometimes the plan is already made for you. GADS was certainly the latter. I randomly bought a sewing machine and stored it for three years before pulling it out on the curiosity of “maybe I can sew?"
To my surprise, I was a natural at sewing. Perhaps it was my creative nature because the thought of combining raw fabric and materials to create an item that could I use in everyday life excited me.
Purses became my favorite item to sew and I soon expanded to polewear, swimwear, custom clothing, and other accessories. My philosophy has always been to merge fashion with function in a manner that reflects bold, unapologetic liveliness. My designs feature Ankara fabric, which contains vibrant colors, bold prints, and patterns in no set order.

I decided to launch GADS to share my pieces with others. GADS Afro Luxe designs are handmade expressions of what I want in my everyday life: fun, functional, and fashionable pieces. When I could not find the designs I wanted in stores I made them and now they are also available for you.
