The mother-daughter team of Tandra Birkett and Yvonne Jewnell, owners of the fashion company Yvonne Jewnell New York, LLC, and co-founders of Harlem Fashion Week, established Harlem Fashion Week in 2016. It’s a much-needed platform for rising Harlem fashion designers. Proceeds from this major event will benefit the continued development of HFW Learning Center, the nonprofit arm of Harlem Fashion Week that’s dedicated to the development of HFW Kids—the next generation of fashion creators.
This year’s HFW awards went to rapper/actor Ice T, legendary DJ Hollywood, Melle Mel, Roxanne Shanté, DJ Ralph McDaniels, Harlem hip hop trailblazer Jim Jones, Beyoncé’s celebrity stylist Zerina Akers, and hip hop educator Christopher Emdin. While we were speaking to Ice T in the HFW VIP suite, he changed into a blue/black patterned leather jacket designed by Foreign Labur that was passed to him. We asked him about his rise to fame. “You know, I started out with nothing,” said Ice T.
