Now that we are well into Women’s History Month, it’s only right that we begin to support the brands that are constantly making a difference, and are most importantly creating their own seats and their own tables within the industry of fashion. Although these brands have different mission statements, their impacts are all serving a similar vision. By supporting the BIPOC women-led brands that are made by us and made for us, we can continue to create a more inclusive world that pivots if not moves off of the backs of the women that lead it forward.
