Designers of color, especially trailblazers in the streetwear industry, are commonly underrepresented. Yesterday’s misunderstood or banned style, quickly becomes tomorrow’s trend. Still, the designers continue to shape how our communities look and what the fashion world is today. 

Join BL²END and Muse as we gather the finest influencers, stylists, and brand owners of color navigating the Grand Rapids fashion community to discuss their experiences and present their latest work.
