While at New York Fashion Week, I had the chance to attend an exclusive Covergirl pop-up event at their flagship store in
The Naomi Group provided the models. While UpTime Energy, Black Baron Wines, Tessie’s Teas and MargaTricia by Patricia provided the beverages for the event. Picadely NYC provided the appetizers and Christina Liedtke of No Sofa Club sold her scarves and pocket squares.
FM: What is something you’d still love to accomplish as a fashion designer?
Justin: I would love to accomplish MORE of a celebrity clientele. I am enjoying the amount I have now, but a little more won’t hurt! I also want to do more with accessories such as hand bags and shoes.
FM: You were the Featured Designer for the first night of our Covergirl NYFW Designer Pop Up. You were able to meet with influencers, bloggers, and fashion fans. Your models showcased your collection throughout Covergirl in the heart of Times Square, they even took over the windows for everyone to see. Not to mention, you were on a billboard right in Times Square! What was your favorite part of participating in this event?
Justin: This season was by far my best NYFW Season! Thanks to Melissa Shea, Dee Rivera, Fashion Mingle, and New York Fashion Week, I was able to become more visible than I’ve ever been at Fashion Week before. For everyone to embrace me and my brand, to want to see it grow and get the visibility it deserves is amazing! Most just want your money, but I can honestly say they want to see me succeed! I’m super thankful to Covergirl. And again, the billboard! I’m just ready for my next one…on the bigger screen. I’ve accomplished so much and I am still accomplishing so much, with great people like you in my corner.
