Black Creatives in Fashion – Essence

@ChicagoDonC

Raised in Chicago, streetwear designer Don C , 44, is best known as a former executive at the G.O.O.D. Music label, but he’s a fashion phenom in his own right. Chosen as one of four Moët & Chandon’s “Greatness Under Pressure” video-campaign participants, along with NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony, Don C has also collaborated with Nike, Air Jordan, Rémy Martin and American Express. “Being a Black creative in fashion, I’ve had to be resilient and give 100 percent [of myself] every day, always staying dedicated to my craft and finding ways to create greatness under pressure,” he says. “I haven’t done it all alone, though. The community around me has been a huge part of my journey to success, and I love celebrating that. There’s nothing better than popping a bottle of my favorite champagne, Moët, with my favorite people when I’m toasting an accomplishment.” As the founder of the sportswear line Just Don and co-owner (with Virgil Abloh) of the RSVP Gallery luxury apparel chain, Don C definitely has many good reasons to raise a glass.
