The Institute of Black Imagination.

E50. June Ambrose: The Style Architect.


Listen Later

Today’s conversation is with designer and creative director June Ambrose. June is an award-winning creative director, stylist, costume designer, and entrepreneur who has built a career creating culture-shifting moments through fashion and style. Using fashion as her language, June teaches us her own personal way of finding one’s voice. 

In today’s episode, we explore themes of finding one’s voice, the importance of authenticity, the constance of reinvention and what happens when you give yourself permission. Today’s conversation reminds us of the power in building a brand and not to be defined by someone elses opinion of us.
