Delilah Johnson is a dreamer – a BIG dreamer – and on Friday she took the first step in becoming her dream. This past weekend we shot the first campaign for her new clothing line and I could not be happier for her!
Delilah’s story is a lot like mine: Both from the midwest. Ran track for FAMU. Went to business school. Joined a greek organization (she’s my AKA soror). Got a great job out of college and moved to Miami. All these accomplishments were great but she had yet to follow her passion. Delilah spent her days going to work as a buyer for Macy’s and her nights sketching, sewing and creating until one day she made the leap. There’s a point for every young entrepreneur when your passion becomes your purpose and it can be a very scary moment. For Delilah, that moment was filled with support from the people who love her and the people who love her beautiful dresses. As you can see I’m Team Delilah all the way… she has talent, the passion, the personality and did I mention the talent! If dresses could change the world, they would be Delilah’s.
Special thanks to our amazing team who made this shoot possible: Jessica Nabongo – Art Director/Make-up artist, Nickey-Ann Leon – Production Assistant/assistant stylist, Sarah Clark – Stylist and Our models – Venisha Hinton & Nicole Hutchuinson. **Special shout out to Jamaican Paul aka “Creepy McCreeperton” on being the male model for the shoot.
