Podcasts about harlem's fashion row

As the fashion world grapples with its longstanding lack of diversity, Brandice Daniel is standing tall with open arms. The founder of Harlem’s Fashion Row established the organization back in 2007 as a way to funnel more multicultural designers into the notoriously white fashion industry. It’s clear that she was ahead of her time, but she’s just glad that others are finally catching up. “It’s been amazing to see so many people join the fight,” Daniel tells Bustle. “You can’t fix a 400-year-old problem in a few years with a few people on the frontlines. It’s going to take an army, and I feel like that army is being formed now with so many different amazing organizations and initiatives being created.” When she reflects back on the last 13 years, Daniel says that she’s most surprised by the scope of the partnerships she’s been able to forge between up-and-coming designers and big-name brands. Most recently, HFR teamed up with the children’s brand Janie and Jack, a collaboration that was inspired by her four-year-old daughter, Sky Grace. “This has been my favorite brand for her since birth,” she says. “To now have a full collaboration with them and three dope designers of color is a dream. My basement is full of our Janie and Jack samples right now. Every time I look at all these beautiful pieces created by Kimberly Goldson, Richfresh, and Kristian Lorén with the HFR logo, I smile.” HFR helped kick off NYFW this season with a digital activation on the first night of shows. The 13th annual runway show and Awards ceremony included appearances by fashion icons like Dapper Dan, Misa Hylton, and even Vogue EIC Anna Wintour. Among the award recipients, Pyer Moss designer Kerby Jean-Raymond was honored by Tracee Ellis Ross and Teen Vogue EIC Lindsay Peoples-Wagner by fashion icon Constance White. The event theme was “Black Is the New Black,” a nod to the fact that Black excellence in fashion is no passing trend. The runway portion featured the Fall 2020 collections of 3 Black designers, Kristian Lorén, Patrick Henry of Richfresh, and HFR mainstay Kimberly Goldson. Originally, the plan was to host several IRL events throughout the year and host a grand production for Fashion Week centered around the Janie and Jack collaboration. Of course, then the pandemic happened. “I had no idea how we would pivot at first,” Daniel shares. It wasn’t until she thought of another venture, ICON360, which creates funding options for BIPOC designers underrepresented in fashion, that all the pieces started to fit together. “When the idea for ICON360 came, I knew I had to figure it out because we had to raise money for designers of color,” Daniel says. “When you’re driven by something bigger than yourself, you figure it out. I believe that whenever we’re limited in some capacity, it forces us to do things in a new way.” While it may seem like Daniel never stops innovating, she’s the first to admit that this year has been full of challenges. “In the beginning of the pandemic, I felt so down and helpless,” she shares, adding that her self-care routine includes “a good hot bath” with a Harlem Candle Company candle and Kem playing in the background. Another key element for the entrepreneur was tapping into her desire to give back — not despite all the uncertainty but rather because of it. “The only thing that got me up and creative was serving,” she says. “We often think about what we’re getting out of life, but something amazing happens when we start to give. Giving is how I stay motivated.”

Harlem's Fashion Row founder, Brandice Daniel, is dropping in to give you all of the latest on HFR, share details on our upcoming NYFW event, and recap top moments from the year so far!

Welcome back! The 5th Annual You Are Stronger Than You Think Women's Conference was at the beginning of this month. Here are my 3 big takeaways: One word or idea that came to heart in this planning process was my need for validation. God silenced that doubt. I thought this would be our last year, but I believe we’re just getting started. All that we’ve learned has positioned us for what’s next. My assignment is for the Christian woman in the marketplace. Our Keynote Speaker was Brandice Daniel, the founder of Harlem's Fashion Row. She shared her journey of growing her company for the last 11 years.   Brandice's definition of a Cliff Jump? "A cliff jump is taking an action towards your goal despite your qualifications, the fear you feel about how things will turn out, what people will say, your lack of confidence or the doubt you might have about your own worthiness." ************ What was your takeaway from this message?

HFR was founded in 2007 with the main focus being to provide a voice for multicultural designers; through a creative platform that enables these designers to sell and present their collections to key leaders within the fashion industry. My favorite thing about this interview is Brandice’s transparency. She pours herself out in this interview and gives us a peak behind the glamour of running a fashion business in New York. She’s been on her entrepreneurial journey for over a decade. I’m highlighting Brandice first for 2 reasons, she’s our featured keynote and because I believe her story epitomizes our core values of courage, confidence and consistency. She is a woman of faith who is thriving in the fashion, arts and entertainment industry. I can’t wait for you to meet her!

The intrigue of entrepreneurship was always within Brandice Daniel when she was an adventurous child growing up in Memphis, and it was always around her thanks to her entrepreneurial parents. But when it was time to go to college, Brandice "played it safe" by selecting the major that her parents had in mind for her: pre-med. That is until she got real with herself and decided to take the first of many leaps that would punctuate her career for years to come: She was going to work in fashion.   Many brave leaps and "cliff jumps" later, and Brandice is now the creator and CEO of one of the fashion industry's premier annual events -- Harlem's Fashion Row, which she began in 2007 to help shine the light on designers and boutique owners of color who were often left out of the mainstream spotlight. But the journey to down the runway to success was far from seamless and glamorous. On this episode of the Support is Sexy podcast, Brandice speaks candidly about lessons learned, how she survived the very deep valleys, how she renegotiated the "nos" along the way, and how she's now creating courses, expanding her brand and building a powerful community surrounded by great girlfriends and supporting fashion stars of the future.   On this episode you will learn: How to know when you're "on the right floor."How to pay attention to the thing that you're dream to.Why proximity is power.A step back is different than a setback.How to make sure you stand out with your "ask."The importance of taking inspired action when that bright idea hits you.The importance of the "cliff jump."The biggest lesson she learned about sponsorships.Figuring out the times of day that you are most productive.Why you have to meet the universe halfway.  Show notes, links, contacts and resources for this episode may be found at supportissexypodcast.com   Subscribe to Support is Sexy podcast on iTunes or on Stitcher Radio!
