Join us in celebrating Crystal Mayanja, the visionary founder of Color Coded Style, who is revolutionizing the world of fashion journalism! With a focus on the African diaspora in fashion and uplifting black individuals in the industry, Crystal’s journey is truly inspiring.

Starting with a YouTube channel to spotlight black fashion icons, Krystal’s passion has evolved into promoting sustainability in fashion, tackling crucial issues like black consumerism, and supporting black-owned businesses. Last year, she organized a successful panel event at the Eaton Hotel in DC, advocating for thrift stores and sustainable styling.

Following the overwhelming response, Krystal is gearing up for a grand weekend event on April 19 - April 21, 2024, featuring our own LaTisha Winston as a panelist and Naima Dozier as a vendor.

The event is set to shine a spotlight on DMV area designers, emphasizing sustainability and amplifying black voices in fashion.

Crystal’s mission extends to freelance editing for fashion publications, conducting insightful interviews with industry leaders. Join Crystal, LaTisha and Naima for an engaging event that blend discussions on sustainability, black consumerism, workshops, clothing swaps, and captivating panel talks with other esteemed guest speakers.
