Runway Fashion Show in the Financial District for Jewelry Designer Kandakes
In the world of fashion, inclusivity and representation have become essential themes, highlighting the beauty and creativity of marginalized groups. This remarkable fashion runway show proudly showcased the creative brilliance of people of color (POC), transgender individuals, and others who have been historically underrepresented in the industry, giving their unique voices a platform to shine.
Among the myriad of elements that made this runway show extraordinary, the exquisite jewelry by Rashawnda Scott, the talented designer behind Kandakes, added a touch of elegance and uniqueness to their ensembles. The location, a private office space in the vibrant Financial District, provided a sophisticated backdrop for this transformative gathering.
