Naomi Campbell Ventures Beyond the Catwalk: A New Fashion Odyssey with Nigeria’s VicNate

Renowned black supermodel Naomi Campbell has ventured into a new chapter of her illustrious career, pivoting from the dazzling catwalks to the creative realms of the fashion industry. Collaborating with emerging Nigerian luxury designer Victor Adewale, the visionary creative director behind VicNate, as well as Jamaican talent Edvin Thompson, this exciting collaboration promises to bring a fresh perspective to the world of haute couture.

Campbell’s move into mentoring and collaborating with emerging talent exemplifies her commitment to diversity and inclusivity within the fashion world, empowering the next generation of designers and models to shine in an industry that has often been criticized for its lack of representation.

Together with Victor Adewale and Edvin Thompson, Naomi Campbell’s foray into fashion curation is set to redefine the boundaries of creativity, celebrating the fusion of diverse cultural influences and cutting-edge design.

As an icon of the fashion world, Campbell’s transition into this mentorship and collaboration role not only amplifies the voices of talented individuals from underrepresented backgrounds but also paves the way for a more inclusive and vibrant future for the industry as a whole. This new adventure promises to be a testament to the enduring power of fashion as a medium for self-expression and cultural celebration.

After 37 incredible years on the catwalk, I’m thrilled for the opportunity to share my latest adventure on the other side – as a designer! Especially during the start of NYFashionWeek!

The process has been a dream come true, for me and the young designers that are featured: @vicnateng and @edvinthompson and I couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of my friend, @iamalexavant, my team @desiree @lejenke @akeemjr @omarsteelejr @womenmanagementny @anglomomakeup @rio_hair @omarsteelejr ca.rlton21 @carla_sims and the amazing team at PLT, led by the visionary @Umarkamani.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for making this collection a reality, changing the pace of fast fashion 💜🙏🏾
