UPL had a backstage pass and VIP access to the LaQuan Smith presentation during fashion week. Mr. Smith presented a line full of bold and imaginative designs that were well made and interesting to the eye. The party was a blast as well and featured a who’s who of black style and entertainment including the likes of style icon June Ambrose, Bravo’s Chef Roble, designer Marc Clark, stylist Tayo Fajemisin, former Essence and Paper Magazine editor Zandile Blay who now reports for Huffington Post and Africa style daily, recording artist Nikko Sherard, and UPL fashion contributor Carl Ayers.

True Indian hair was one of the show’s sponsors and provided the beautiful extensions used in the show. Founder Karen was on hand for the presentation as well.
