Serita Jakes in Sai Sankoh
The Nessa Shirt Dress, worn at the Women's COGIC Convention
Serita Jakes wears Sai Sankoh on the stages that matter most to her — the Nessa shirt dress, the Emilia blouse, the Pink Colette set, and the ocean blue print.
Serita Jakes is an author, speaker, and the First Lady of The Potter's House, alongside her husband, Bishop T.D. Jakes. She is also the mother of Sarah Jakes Roberts, founder of Woman Evolve.


The Nessa Shirt Dress, at the Women's COGIC Convention
A silk floral shirt dress in coral, pink, and gold, worn at the Women's COGIC Convention in Orlando. The kind of print that reads across a full ballroom.
The Emilia Blouse, at The Potter's House of Dallas
A green and cream floral blouse with dramatic bell sleeves, worn preaching from the stage. Covered, moving, and striking at once.
The Pink Colette Set & Ocean Blue Print
A coral Colette duster and matching pants, worn on stage beside her daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts. And a blue and white ocean print worn over Blue Ocean printed pants, shared on her verified Instagram.
Why These Looks Work for a First Lady
Covered and modest for the setting, comfortable enough to sit, stand, and worship for hours, striking enough that a congregation and camera both remember her.
