Macy’s is celebrating Black History Month this year through fashion! At locations through out the country they will focus on fashions, styles and moods from The SOUL Era (60’s ad 70’s) I can’t wait! As a child of the 80’s I watched my parents rock fro’s, bell bottoms, platforms and even capes during that time period. I think the passion that I have for natural Black beauty, hair and style is a direct result of watching my beautiful mother and father. They loved to dress.
Macy’s is bringing in celebrity stylists June Ambrose and costume designer, Johnetta Boone. These 2 icons have worked with everyone including: Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Will Smith, and Zoe Saldana. They have been featured in Vogue Germany, New York Magazine, VH1 and HBO! Together they are coming to a Macy’s near you to take us on a fashion journey through the 60’s and 70’s aka The SOUL era.
