WHO WE ARE

CLLCTVE was born from the vision of fashion designer Laurence Andrew, who recognized a glaring void in the industry. Designers of color were often overlooked and underrepresented. Refusing to accept the status quo, Laurence took action, creating a platform that champions innovation, inclusion, and progress.

At CLLCTVE, our focus is on presenting designers of color in innovative and nontraditional ways. Biannually, we curate an intimate showcase with a trio of designers, creating meaningful connections between designers, retail buyers, investors, and private clients.

This approach fosters deeper engagement, allowing for a full immersion in each designer’s story, vision, and brand identity. In addition to our innovative presentations, we curate pop-up shopping experiences to help our designers connect more effectively with their audience. At CLLCTVE, our main focus is on building relationships and creating a lasting impact.

Our commitment goes beyond exposure. We also prioritize the well-being of our designers. By offering access to wellness resources, we ensure they have the support needed to thrive creatively and personally.

CLLCTVE is here to redefine the future of fashion, one designer at a time.
