About The Brand

Starting a young age, brand founder Mia Fairnot, has always been passionate about storytelling, singing, writing, and creativity. Spending much of her early years creating fictional, fun stories or song performances on VHS tapes with siblings. This creativity sparked happiness and served as therapy for many challenges she faced being a family of 5 with a single parent household and absent father. 

Creativity soon evolved as her outlet to channel emotions including those that came with frequently moving and longing for a sense of consistent community. Her mother would often share stories about her late grandmother, whom she never had the opportunity to meet and soon her creativity provided the vessel to storytelling to share those emotions. Beginning as a hat brand in June 2018, Mi Amor Doris Apparel was birthed as a connection to her grandmother with the knowledge of her love of hats. "The vision for Mi Amor Doris Apparel is very clear to me." From the love of my grandmother and connection to hats to the love of creative storytelling. The brand translates as, “With love from Doris Apparel”. Mi Amor Doris Apparel connects generations of today and tomorrow through creative storytelling.  Though Mi Amor Doris initially began as a hat brand, it continues to evolve including most recently expanding into t-shirts, hoodies, and more.  

Mi Amor Doris is a reminder that though we live in a world that often reinforces why our differences separate us, WE, are all connected through storytelling. Further, there will always be opportunity for creative storytellers across visual mediums to inspire, highlight, and celebrate each other around the globe.
