Beyonce is using her wide platform to support Black Designers during Black History Month!
The chanteuse recently showed off an Ankara printed suit and hat by Nigerian brand Enagancio, styled by Zerina Akers. She wore it to Swizz Beatz’s Dreamweavers Group exhibition opening.
A few days prior, she rocked a bejeweled suit by Sergio Hudson.
She made waves wearing Balmain Spring 2019 Couture to the Rocnation Grammy Brunch :

We can’t wait to see what she wears next! Maybe she’ll dip in to FashionBombDailyShop.com? We hope so!
What do you think?
So Fashion Week is over!
It was a busy past few days with shows, interviews, photo shoots, and more.
On Day 1, I attended the Tadashi Shoji show at Spring Studios in an Iconic tee by The Haus NYC, along with patent pants and a blazer by Elegant by Alice:
That night, I switched into an Iconic sweatshirt by The Haus NYC to interview Rich the Kid.
Full video coming soon…!
Day 2 was pretty mild temperature wise, so I slipped on a purple wrap dress by Hanifa Official to take in the Hong Kong Fashion show.
The dress had a high slit, so I opted for printed Balenciaga boots and accessorized with a Laura Faye clutch.
And on the last day, I rocked a sweater by Shop IIXC to take in Aisha McShaw’s show:
I stayed busy! But it was fun. Which look was your fave?

Last night, Aisha McShaw showed her latest Fall/Winter 2019 collection to a well curated selection of fashionistas at Prince George Ballroom.
McShaw is a designer, yes, but she is also a socialite and a girl about town. Her collection speaks to women like her, who must look polished for fashionable meetings, then switch into gowns or cocktail dresses for galas or chic parties.
Sticking to a regal purple, wine, and green color palette, mixed with neutrals, Aisha offered tailored suits, form fitting dresses and chic sets for the daytime.
For evening, she offered velvet jumpsuits, flowing gowns, and the cutest cocktails with backless designs.
Plays with textures added unexpected flair. My favorites were the feathered hemmed dresses and pants.

It’s about that time Bombshells, whether cuffed, crushing or consciously single (we’re not gonna shame you!) any Bombshell in either category can look just as Bomb in Cardi B’s ‘I Like Stunntin’ trench, just in time for Valentine’s Day! Like Jadah Blue, she looks vivacious and pretty in pink in the liquid leather trench that consists of a deep V, held together by a matching belt. Doing just enough and boldly, I’d agree that the only thing needed besides a cute do’, are simple shoes in black, gold or clear to really set the look off. You can find the trench here for a steal of $60 in red or black, Bombers!

Real quick Fashion Bombshells,
Is it cool if we make Angela Simmons blush? Much like the color of this chic Fashion Nova find, because I know I won’t be alone completely raving over this extremely stylish dress full of fringed goodness. Angela, giving you a casual feel, looks like an absolute dolled up tomboy pairing the ‘Serenity Fringe Sweater Dress’, with Off__White’s Converse ‘Chuck 70’ high sneakers. Found in the colors of both blush and rust, you can find it here for a steal of $75, Bombers!
Contrary to what some industry insiders led us to believe at the time about the discovery of one of the world’s top models, Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid was not found poor and underprivileged in a dusty field in her native Somalia and then thrust into the glossy, high fashion world.
Iman was the daughter of a diplomat father and a gynecologist mother. Fluent in five languages, the model and successful entrepreneur was a student studying political science at Nairobi University when she was discovered by American photographer Peter Beard (pictured with the model above).
By the age of 18, she was married to a young Somali man but the marriage ended a few years later after she went to pursue her modeling career.
After moving to the United States around 1975, a year later Iman landed her first modeling assignment for Vogue. Her long neck, thin frame, gorgeous skin, and accent (although she has always said in comparison to typical Somali girls her looks were quite plain) made her a hit in the fashion world.
She quickly became a fixture on the runway and a muse for fashion designers including Yves St. Laurent, Versace, Calvin Klein and Donna Karan.
In 1977 she married basketball player Spencer Haywood; the two had a daughter Zulekha Haywood in 1978. They divorced in 1987.
In 1992 Iman married British rock icon David Bowie. The two, who have appeared together in fashiod ads, are still married today. Their daughter Alexandria Zahra Jones was born in 2000.
Today at 55 Iman is still very much an integral part of the fashion and beauty world. Her Iman Cosmetics line, a top-selling brand on the Walgreens.com website, is a $25 million-dollar-a-year business. In 2007 she was approached by the CEO of the Home Shopping Network to start a clothing line. It took some convincing but Iman eventually agreed. The line, Global Chic which consists of affordable accessories, fashionable separates, and even luggage, is now one of the highest selling fashion brands at HSN. She also now stars as host of Bravo’s “The Fashion Show” alongside friend and designer Isaac Mizrahi.
She also was a part of the huge Africa-themed July 2007 issue of Vanity Fair which had 20 different covers all shot by famed photographer Annie Leibowitz. A strong supporter of her native continent, Iman was quoted in the issue as saying “My Africa is rich in human resources and dignity… I get insulted when I see only images of our dying, our wars, our Darfur, our AIDS victims… not our doctors, our nurses, our teachers,” Iman told the magazine. “Africa must find its own saviors: the salvation of Africa is in the hands of African women.“
She is also host of Canada’s “Project Runway” and is also very much an activist and humanitarian. She’s currently a spokesperson for Keep a Child Alive and also does work with the Children’s Defense Fund.
Iman even ended her contract with diamond giant De Beers over ethics conflicts. Concerns that the corporation is exploiting the rights of the Bushmen of Botswana prompted her to step down. In an interview Iman criticised the forced relocations of the Bushmen and is quoted as saying “It was clear that the Bushmen were being destroyed – you take people from their element and you end up with AIDS, drugs and alcohol in the guise of advancement.“
She won a Glamour Woman of the Year awards in 2006 and in 2010 was awarded the Fashion Icon lifetime achievement award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), a special prize reserved for “an individual whose signature style has had a profound influence on fashion”. Recently she was an honoree at the 2011 BET Honors.
