African American Fashion Designer That You Need To Know About: Victor Glemaud
Hello again fashion lovers, I hope that you all are having a great Tuesday and wearing your masks and staying safe as much as possible. In this time of uncertainty, I hope that you all will stay positive and being kind to each other.
I've read the September issue of Instyle Magazine (I read it three times, no joke.) and I was reading an article about the designer Haitian Fashion Designer Victor Glemaud, so I wanted to know more about this designer. Victor Glemaud launched his eponymous leisurewear collection of statement knitwear, designed for all people, genders, races, sizes, and personalities, marrying comfort and style in 2006.
He was also a finalist in the 2017 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund and honored for his achievements by the Ambassador of Haiti to the United States. Raised in Queens, New York, Victor began his career as a design assistant to Patrick Robinson while studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. After working as a publicist at KCD for Versace and Marc Jacobs, he returned to design in 2005, first as Womenswear Design Advisor and later as Studio Director at Paco Rabanne, followed by Style Director at Tommy Hilfiger, and over the years has consulted with several brands, including H&M for the Met Gala.
His collections have been worn by celebrities and influencers including Ashley Graham, Dominique Jackson, Florence Pugh, Hailey Baldwin, Issa Rae, Laura Harrier, Margot Robbie, Michelle Williams, Iman, and Selena Gomez, and has garnered press in many outlets from The New York Times to Vogue Italia.
I saw this dress from his Fall/Winter 2020 Ready-To-Wear Collection and I fell in love with it. I love the color, I love how the cutouts give this dress a little sexiness to the dress, but the thing that I love is that they paired sneakers with this dress.
Another dress from his Fall/Winter 2020 Ready-To-Wear that I love was this one. I love how the three colors go well together. This is the same dress that Zendaya wore in the September issue of Instyle Magazine.
As many of you know, I absolutely LOVE sweaters and the color Yellow and when I saw both of these pieces from his Resort 2020 Collection, I Gagged. These two pieces remind me so much of something that Mary Tyler Moore would wear on her show. I love how the white piping cinched in her waist.
How gorgeous does Ashley Graham in a Victor Glemaud dress? It was classy and sexy at the same time.
The designer himself, Victor Glemaud.
