Claire Sulmers Instagram – Thank you @cfda and @_karyl_j_true for this wonderful feature! I am truly honored! An excerpt, “Our mission-vision-purpose is to be the change we want to see in the world and to be reflective of the diversity and the beauty we see in the streets. To showcase dope fashion, regardless of race, socio-economic background, size, color, shape, and age. To be a beacon of light and positivity in the fashion industry.” My mother also said, “thanks for the shout out,” with the following: ““I come from a family of fashion notables. My maternal grandfather, Haisley Newton, owned a tailor shop in Nassau, Bahamas – where he designed bespoke clothing. Aptly named Boog’s Master Touch, because he loved to dance the “Boogie Woogie.” My paternal grandmother, Odette Rigaud Sulmers, was a couturier, and my mother, Jennifer Newton, learned how to sew from my grandfather, and attended The High School of Fashion Industries here in New York City and can make anything under the sun. I come from a legacy of fashion and entrepreneurship, and I am very proud of that.” Read more at the link in my bio.
