Over the past week demonstrations and protests have been held in response to the senseless deaths of black people like
George Floyd and
Breonna Taylor. The Black community has urged the world to show support not only by
protesting,
donating,
signing petitions,
getting educated on systemic racism, and more, but by promoting and shopping black-owned businesses as well.
In solidarity I put together an outfit created exclusively with pieces from black fashion designers. This is not a one-time thing—I am committed to using my platform to feature black-owned businesses and black designers more frequently. This minimalist look is spot-on for spring and summer with a camel midi dress, black sunglasses, gold hoop earrings, a sleek black bag, and strappy mule sandals. Complete the ensemble with oil-nourished skin. Shop each piece directly from the designers' sites below.
