A Family Affair: Guest Edited By Ib Kamara
In recent years, no voice has been more influential in fashion than that of Sierra Leone-born stylist Ib Kamara. Authentic, collaborative and utterly original, Ib is a true visionary.
When we launched ‘A Family Affair’, our aim was to champion our creative communities in the times we need one another the most. Ib’s work is a true testament to this goal. It is thus timely that in the midst of this project’s execution, we witnessed the dawn of the largest civil rights movement in recent history.
For the fourth and final edition of ‘A Family Affair’, we invite Ib to share his vision with us, bringing together his nearest and dearest for a celebration of future, community, beauty and Blackness.
