Opportunities like this change the game. ? This week, our HBCU students from Texas A&T stepped inside Tiffany & Co. for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes experience designed to prepare them for the next level in their careers. They didn’t just hear about the industry—they engaged with it firsthand. From mock interviews to portfolio critiques, these students sat down with Tiffany & Co.’s top corporate leaders, including executives in communications and merchandising, to learn exactly what it takes to break into the fashion and luxury space. The guidance, insight, and real-time feedback they received? Invaluable. We’re beyond grateful to Tiffany & Co. for opening doors, sharing knowledge, and investing in the next generation of Black talent. These moments aren’t just inspiring—they’re career-shaping. And we’re here for all of it. #HBCUExcellence #HarlemsFashionRow #FutureLeaders #FashionCareers #TexasAT #TiffanyAndCo

The GAP x HFR collection isn’t just making waves in fashion—it’s sparking conversations across culture, creativity, and representation. Our most recent press has captured just how monumental this moment truly is: ?? As seen in: “We really wanted to redefine iconic Gap pieces and bring something unexpected, interesting, and fun. No matter your style, there’s something for everyone in this collection.” – BET “Each designer’s creativity takes center stage—bringing a fresh, authentic perspective to create a truly original collection.” – Essence “The collection is led by designers A.Potts, BruceGlen, KAPHILL, N'Gai, and Richfresh, and reimagines classic pieces like shirts and hoodies, merging Gap's heritage with fresh, contemporary perspectives.” – Good Morning America From Vogue to CNN to WWD, Harper’s Bazaar, and more, this collaboration is proving what happens when designers of color are given the space to create freely. To GAP, our incredible designers, and the entire HFR community, thank you for making this a collaboration that will be remembered. Let’s keep the momentum going.

What happens when you bring Black fashion history, culture, and creativity into corporate spaces? You spark conversations. You shift perspectives. You create real impact. Last week, HFR attended PVH Corp. with an immersive Black History Month experience - not just a panel, not just a conversation, but a runway show inside the office. Models walked through the space, bringing collections from Megan Smith and the HFR x Nordstrom collab straight to the people. Employees didn’t just hear about Black fashion innovation, they witnessed it in motion. This wasn’t just about celebrating the past - it was about showing how Black designers are shaping the future of fashion in real-time. And we’re just getting started. Thank you to @meganrenee_ for sharing her brilliance, the incredible models for making every step a statement, and PVH Corp. for recognizing that honoring Black fashion means making space for it. This is how we change the industry. One space, one stage, one moment at a time.

Last week at PVH Corp., we didn’t just talk about Black fashion - we brought it to life. From the moment models stepped onto the runway weaving through the office, something shifted. Eyes lit up. Conversations sparked. Barriers broke. Here’s what we took away from this moment: 1 - Representation in motion is powerful. It’s one thing to discuss Black designers - it’s another to see their work command a room, turning hallways into runways and ideas into action. 2 - Celebration isn’t enough, access is key. Honoring Black fashion history means actively making space for Black designers today. Seeing Megan Smith's designs walk through PVH’s headquarters wasn’t just inspiring, it was necessary. 3 - When we show up, we shift the narrative. This wasn’t just about a panel or a showcase, it was about rewriting the future of fashion from the inside out. And this is just the beginning. Huge gratitude to PVH Corp. for leaning into real change. This is how we move the culture forward. One bold step at a time! #BlackHistoryMonth #RunwayAtWork #HFR #FashionInColor #HarlemsFashionRow

The designers behind GAP x HFR didn’t just create clothes, they told a story. Each designer in this collaboration brought their unique vision, artistry, and purpose to reimagine GAP’s iconic pieces. The result? A collection that is as bold, diverse, and powerful as the talent behind it. ?? In their own words: A. Potts (Aaron Potts) "My goal was to create pieces that feel comfortable, sophisticated, and expressive—without limits on who can wear them." BruceGlen (Bruce & Glen Proctor) "We wanted our designs to bring joy - bold color, bold pattern, and the kind of energy that makes you feel unstoppable." Kaphill (Krystal Phillips) "Designing for this collaboration meant honoring the women who inspire me daily - giving them a piece that makes them feel seen, powerful, and effortlessly stylish." N’Gai (Nicole King) "Denim is a classic, but I wanted to push it forward - giving it new depth, new shades, and a fresh perspective while keeping it timeless." Richfresh (Patrick Henry) "For me, it’s always about precision, craftsmanship, and making every detail count. I wanted these pieces to feel just as powerful as the people wearing them." This is what happens when designers of color are given the platform they deserve. Their stories, their craftsmanship, their creativity - front and center. To the designers, to GAP, and to the village that continues to show up and support - thank you for making this more than a moment.
