Essence Celebrates Black Designers!

In their February 08' issue Essence is featuring black designers unknown and well known in their article "Black Designers Rule". Some of the designers featured include Kai Milla, Kimmora Lee Simmons, Victor Glemaud, B. Michael, Tracy Reese, and Stephen Burrows. The lines ranged from modern suits and sweaters to stunning gowns. My favorite was a piece by Kai Milla. It was a conservative but sexy beige cocktail dress. Not my usaul urban preppy style but it was simply gorgeous.
Essence also featured many other designers including Christian Luboutin (featured an amazing graffiti print clutch), Jean Paul Gaullier, Donna Karan, Marchesa, and Zac Posen. Real talk its super dope. Hit up Barnes and Noble or something to check it out.
