At RaiseFashion, Supporting a Global Mindset for Emerging Design Talent

BoF speaks to five BIPOC designers based in New York, LA, Chicago and London on the non-profit’s Brand Fellowship programme to learn more about how RaiseFashion’s educational programming, network and financial resources are helping them strategically grow their businesses across the US and further afield.
The image features two individuals engrossed in their craftwork within a workshop or studio environment. The person in the foreground is diligently operating a sewing machine, meticulously shaping a piece of dark fabric, which could be a garment. They are donning a brown cap. In the background, another individual is equally absorbed in their manual work, although the details of their activity remain indistinct. The scene is a snapshot of focused artistry, where the hum of the sewing machine likely blends with the concentration of skilled hands at work.
Founded in 2020, in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, RaiseFashion launched its annual Brand Fellowship programme last year. (RaiseFashion)
