An Excerpt:

“Every year, the world continues to open up for me, and so for those starting out, just don’t get discouraged, and if you really love it, then do the work and be consistent and persistent,” says Sulmers. “You will break through.”

This type of work mantra has been applied well throughout Sulmers’s career, including her blog Fashion Bomb Daily, which she started while working in the editorial department of Real Simple in 2006. The platform’s first two years involved Sulmers balancing both her full-time job and her side project, which served as a means to explore her growing interest in fashion blogging. “If you go back to some of our first posts, it’s pictures of some of my coworkers or pictures of people on their lunch break outside in Rockefeller Center,” recalls Sulmers.

Show Review: Aliette Spring 2020 by Jason Rembert

Jason Rembert presented a beautifully rich collection for his line Aliette during New York Fashion Week.

Known for dressing A-list talent like Issa Rae, Rita Ora, and many more, Rembert fittingly offered red carpet worthy gowns in a sea of colors that would pop on brown skin: yellow, greens, and reds reigned supreme, while metallics, and all black pieces played to those with more classic predilections.

Some of our favorites? Semi sheer skirts that glinted under the lights with slits up the there, a pair of silver pants paired with a one shoulder white tank, and a bow addled color blocked look that is begging to be worn this Awards Season.

It was flawless and a strong showing for a designer who debuted his first collection merely one season ago.

Front row attendees like Dapper Dan, Kerby Jean-Raymond of Pyer Moss, Vic Mensa, Wouri Vice, and so many more could not contain their excitement.
