The Fashion Bomb blog is the web’s number one destination for urban fashion.
Created in August 2006 by journalist Claire Sulmers, The Fashion Bomb provides daily doses of chic to stylistas of color. Recognizing there were few print and online sources for urban fashion, Claire took her interests in style and writing to create the number one online destination for sassy multi-culturals with a penchant for all things fabulous.
Readers log on to The Fashion Bomb for its fresh takes on fashion news and stories, along with its boutique spotlights, magazine scans, fashion show reviews, trends, wardrobe advice, celebrity looks for less, and tips on how to break into the industry from the best in the business.
Since its inception, The Fashion Bomb has been named Blog to Watch by Women’s Wear Daily, Blog of the Moment by Teen Vogue, and has been featured in Upscale and Uptown magazines (See Press). Local newspapers such as New York Metro have also caught onto The Fashion Bomb, as have college newspapers, such as Howard University’s Hilltop and Harvard University’s Crimson. A contributor to Essence and Italian Vogue, Claire has been interviewed as a style expert and trendsetter for the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, The JC Report, Elle Canada and Time Magazine .
The site maintains daily relationships with fashionable followers and celebrities via social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook:
The Fashion Bomb won Judges’ Vote for Best Fashion & Style Blog in the 2009 Black Weblog Awards and was named as one of Signature 9′s 99 Most Influential Style Blogs.
In October 2008, Claire moved to Paris, France to draw inspiration from the singular beauty unique to the world’s capital of fashion. After spending two years in the city of lights and working for Vogue.fr and GlamourParis.com, Claire moved back to the Big Apple in 2010 to further pursue her fashionable dreams. The Fashion Bomb now has several contributors, and seeks to be a global online destination for connoisseurs of contemporary style.
