The Haute50: Black Fashion Movers & Shakers of St. Louis That Are Putting The City on The Map
From designers responsible for your favorite looks on Tyler Perry’s hit shows, to CFDA backed professionals, here is the 2021 Black in St. Louis Fashion list!
Can you guys believe that it’s been a year since I’ve launched Black in St. Louis Fashion?! Yes, a full year. Around this time – I wanted to get a group of fashion creatives together in my city who were doing the damn thing. Up until my editorial, there had NEVER been a mainstream roundup only featuring Black fashion creatives & professionals in St.Louis, and I changed that narrative. Never did I imagine that it would take off as it did, being published in St. Louis Magazine, Ladue News, St. Louis American, & KSDK which has led to us becoming a full blown community!
So – in keeping with tradition and continuing my promise of highlighting and celebrating Black fashion creatives in St. Louis, here is this year’s list, the Haute50!:
