PS: How does your culture influence your approach to fashion?
KBB: Black culture shapes not just my approach to fashion but also my entire artistic perspective. Whether it's drawing inspiration from the creativity of Black musicians, athletes, activists, artists, and more, it's a celebration of individuality and self-expression. I also feel a profound responsibility to honour and pay homage to my culture by actively promoting and supporting Black designers, creators, and voices within fashion, so Black excellence continues to thrive in the industry.
