Harlem’s Fashion Row (HFR) is the premier agency creating a bridge between brands and designers of
color in fashion through brand strategy, collaborations, new media, experiential marketing, recruiting and pipeline programs.
Long before inclusivity became a widely-accepted goal across the fashion industry, Harlem’s Fashion Row has been championing and uplifting designers of color.
We cultivate innovative events which attract a multitude of diverse influencers in fashion, media, and entertainment. Our objective is to provide real business opportunities to multicultural designers in fashion to showcase their skills and abilities in an industry that is often non-accessible to this group.
Harlem’s Fashion Row has partnered with Target, Marriott International, Verizon, Prudential, Covergirl, Pandora jewelry, Nissan, Macy’s, Dark & Lovely, Coca-Cola, ESSENCE Magazine, AOL, BET, and more.
“Sometimes you find your purpose and other times your purpose finds you.

The collection, which launches this October, was filled with fall-ready trenches and color block dresses. Next, June79, a label founded by Shawn Pean, sent models down the runway in a combination of tailored trousers, bomber jackets, and double-breasted cardigans. Johnathan Hayden changed up the tone with floral and abstract printed skirts, dresses, and a dreamy gown that seemed to take flight in the Harlem night’s cool breeze.
