28 Black Fashion Forces: Jerry Lorenzo

February 19, 2019

Jerry Lorenzo doesn’t like to be labeled. Most would consider him a streetwear brand but he sees himself differently. Lorenzo’s objective is to be his authentic self and make the best quality clothes possible. He completely funds his dream with no one to answer to but himself. His core values are deeply rooted in spirituality and he refers to his collection as “God’s Brand.” He has a current sneaker collaboration with Nike called Fear of God 1, and true to its moniker, he determined to remain grounded and humble in all of his success.

 

Editor’s Note: In honor of Black History Month, we highlight some of the most influential forces in fashion, in no specific order. Their impact on the culture is undeniable – and we use this time to tip our hats off to their Black excellence.
