Here at ESSENCE, supporting Black-owned brands is a 24/7 commitment because it is in our DNA . Celebrities wearing these brands are just a testament to their brand identity, quality and innovation. Black-owned brands are the future and these celebs know it. While the beginnings of people supporting Black-owned brands on a higher level of visibility was in opposition to a painful systemic issue, the world is shifting to support on a regular basis now.

Whether these brands are emerging or established, a celebrity co-sign is always a proponent for exponential growth.
