  • Summary

  • How do you go from interning at fashion magazines to becoming Beyoncé's personal stylist? Emmy Award-Winning costume designer Zerina Akers shares with host Elle Ferguson how she went from working in retail fitting rooms to assisting in styling commercial shoots for Avon and Macy's, to landing Beyoncé as her first client! Zerina shares why she founded Black Owned Everything, a marketplace providing a space for Black designers to be recognised and why it’s so important to shine the light on emerging artists. *Spoiler alert* This episode contains stories about how Zerina came to style the iconic black topper hat look for Beyonce's ‘Formation’ video, the power of creating something to leave a lasting legacy as a symbol and not just an outfit, and how she had to prove herself when nobody knew who she was!
