Understanding the assignment that the ESSENCE Fashion House always gives, attendees went above and beyond in their ‘fits. Every room of the Manhattan loft was filled the gworls stepping on necks and leaving no crumbs as they attended workshops, panels, and shopping activations. Black fashionistas and fashionist(o)s filled the event halls, donning some of the season’s hottest looks. HelloBeautiful saw timeless garments like structured denim and lush leather, innovative hand-made custom couture, and bright colors and sheer fabrics in the space.

It is the ties for us. Get into this custom made vest with a long multi-tie back in various patterns and prints worn by @urbannative_

3. @Miss_faye1 Rocks The Denim Monochromatic Trend

 @Miss_faye1 gives a nod to the denim trend in a cute, casual look. We love her pairing of a denim vest with a blue high-low, wide band skirt and dark blue Christian Dior tote.

4. @Im_alicia_ Slays in Crochet Couture

Crochet Couture is the category for @Im_alicia_ . We love the lime green and blue colorways and bold design of the look.

5. Color-Blocking Retroness by @Missashakamilah

If color-blocking was a person, it would be @Missashakamilah. The look is giving us brightness, joy, and nostalgic, retro vibes.

6. @Rashandashanda's Pearlfect Outfit

Pearls are a girl’s best friend. And @Rashandashanda shows us why in this body hugging mini dress with pearl detailing and a bold bag.

7. Fab, Funky, And Functional In @lakisarenee's Animal Print

@lakisarenee rocks an oversized animal print outfit accented by a wide black and gold belt. The outfit doubles as a dress – and pants – with its removable zipper. The look is fabulous, funky, and fashionable.

8. Flower Child

This ESSENCE Fashion House attendee is giving retro realness with her whimsy ensemble. The pairing of the flower bustier and purse is masterful. And her studded jeans take the look over the top.
