Meet Rannette Archer, the magnetic force behind August Gill Apparel. Born in the tremors of 2020, a year scarred by the pandemic and racial discord, this brand arose from Rannette's journey to reclaim her identity. An Eastside Detroit native and daughter to a Belizean immigrant, Rannette had, for a time, dulled her own voice. But the challenges of 2020 made her recognize the need to resonate with her authentic self.

Initially worn as personal emblems of courage, her apparel became conversation starters. It wasn't long before requests for similar pieces started pouring in. And thus, August Gill Apparel, named in homage to her lineage and her father, Augustus, meaning "magnificent," was born.
