At the intersection of fashion, culture, and influence. 🎬✨

Kevan Hall, President & Co-Founder of Black Design Collective, joined Fox 11 Los Angeles to weigh in on the conversation surrounding The Devil Wears Prada 2—while offering perspective shaped by firsthand experience with industry icon Anna Wintour.

Moments like this remind us: behind every cinematic portrayal of fashion is a real ecosystem of creatives, visionaries, and leaders shaping the narrative in real time.

Black Design Collective continues to champion that narrative—where design, legacy, and cultural impact meet.
