Kevan Hall – Couture Fashion Designer on a Mission
After two decades away from New York Fashion Week — focusing on international presentations, building relationships with customers, building a sustainable business model, and developing new retail strategies – Kevan Hall returned to New York Fashion Week. The Spring/Summer 2022 presentation titled, “Brush Strokes”, was a feminine collection of elegant day and evening classics. Brush Stoke colors were present throughout the collection in beautiful hand-painted jacquards and thoughtful pastel shades. The iconic model Coco Mitchell graced the runway and received a grand applause from the audience. Click onto the youtube link to take a look at the Kevan Hall Spring/Summer 2022
