Themed “Black and Crimson Edition,” over 72 models and 15 designers unveiled various collections on the runway, from seasonal “coquette” chic and cultural motifs to original brands from SDSU designers. Models, designers and creators showcased their latest styles for the 2nd annual Black Fashion Show at San Diego State University’s Montezuma Hall. The March 22 event was part of tributes and campus activities to celebrate Black History Month.

Sponsored by Forever 21, this year’s show featured the Black History Month collection curated by designer Henry Jones III. Jones himself attended the event to both support SDSU talent and to promote his new fashion line amidst a vibrant gathering of empowering and supportive Black community members, alongside the families and friends of SDSU students who organized the event.

The event was created to showcase the range of talent within SDSU’s Black community.
