HFR is a movement to provide a platform for up and coming designers of color. The event started with a brief awards ceremony celebrating Editor and Lifestyle Expert Emil Wilbekin, former supermodel Beverly Johnson and Huffington Post editor Julee Wilson.
Afterwards, collections from Byron Lars, K. Milele and Harlem Haberdashery were showcased. Byron's collection dazzled with patterns and textures combined with classic silhouettes, while K.Milele's designs were bright, colorful and featured tons of resort like pieces. Finally Harlem Haberdashery strutted with dope menswear pieces that consisted of fur lined coats and tailored suits.
Seated in the front row was a who's who of industry elite including Bravo's Bevy Smith, Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson, Jacqui Reid and Beyoncé's famed stylist Ty Hunter.
The night ended with a reception that included cocktails and hors d'oeurves.
