📝 A Personal Note from Sarah — Founder of Koemi Studio
Hey Fashion Fam,
I’m reaching out with a very personal message today. As you may have heard, new U.S. tariff changes are expected to go into effect May 2nd, and I’m honestly worried about how this might affect Koemi Studio and small businesses like mine.
Right now, orders can still ship across the U.S. border without extra fees or delays, but after May 2nd, there’s a real chance that U.S. customers could be charged additional import duties.
To thank you for your support (and ease the stress), I’m offering 40% off sitewide for U.S. customers—a discount I’ve never done before.
Use code USA40 at checkout through May 1st.
If you’ve had your eye on something, now is the best time to grab it. I’ve got tons of exciting new designs in the works, but for now, I’m holding off until things stabilize.
Your continued support truly means the world. Thank you for riding this wave with me.
With love,
Sarah
Founder, Koemi Studio
