Daily Paper 
By ESSENCE Fashion Editors ·Updated June 8, 2023
This week in fashion is filled with good news, new releases, and exciting collaborations. Beloved designers are receiving their flowers, Black brands of today are spotlighting iconic Black brands of yesterday, and more. It’s important to know that the journey may seem long and tedious but know that there’s always light at the end of the tunnel. Hard work and talent truly do pay off no matter the timeline.
Collaborations don’t seem to be dying down any time soon this year and we’re never mad about that. Combining our favorite brands no matter how left-field is always a fun thing to witness.
Take a look below at a few fashion happenings this week.
Grace Wales Bonner Announced As Winner Of The British Fashion Council/GQ FundBeloved fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner has deservingly won the British Fashion Council/GQ Fund. The prestigious honor comes with 100 thousand pounds (roughly around $124,000 USD) and industry mentorship for 12 months. Bonner’s brand has been quite the cult favorite as she’s made a name for herself, catching the attention of celebrities (Kendrick shouted her out in a recent song) and megabrands like adidas. Bonner’s Samba’s have become quite the must have item. Congratulations Grace!
