Our mission is to celebrate and showcase Black designers and Black-owned brands both locally and from across the globe. We’re providing a platform to elevate Black creativity and connect brands with an audience who values shopping with a purpose. The fashion industry has a long history of exclusion and marginalization of Black designers and models, despite the significant contributions of Black culture. We seek to address this issue by curating a space for Black talent to present their creations to potential clients, consumers, investors, and influencers. For decades Martha’s Vineyard has been the summer playground for black politicians, entertainers, athletes, and corporate CEO’s looking to let their hair down and enjoy themselves. With August being the height of the summer season, this event will be a premiere opportunity for business networking and social connections.

The runway show is Friday, August 16th at the Stand Theater in Oak Bluffs, MA. Doors open at 10:00 am for check-in, registration, enjoyment of light brunch box and networking.. The show begins at 11:30 am.
