Christopher Smith takes HBCU Fashion World by Storm

Christopher Smith takes pride in being a Hamptonian and a rising star in the fashion industry. His roots and inspiration, however, lies in his hometown. In Atlanta, we toured his studio as he enlightened us on his true muse: his father.

"My dad hated going to school with holes in his pants. He thought, ‘Why buy something just for it to get messed up and fix it? I can just make it myself.’"
