American fashion designer, founder of Pyer Moss<\/a> and current creative director of Reebok, Kerby Jean-Raymond (aka @kerbito<\/a>), has revealed his plan to help black designers. Want to know? Read on.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Under the name “Your friends in New York” (YFiNY)<\/strong> and with the aim of eliminating competition and comparison between designers of colour<\/strong>, Jean-Raymond has launched a plan with the Kering group<\/strong> (luxury brand conglomerate including Balenciaga, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta<\/strong> and others) to incubate talent by strengthening the next generation of black designers<\/strong> and turning them into profitable businesses and fashion stars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the other hand, Kerby’s action is a clear response to Silicon Valley’s accelerator programme<\/strong>, where the company helps with funding, production and planning, but does not own a stake in any of the individual brands, while YFiNY focuses on building the infrastructure for the brands, including brand protection, accounting and even therapy<\/strong>. In addition, all of these will receive a large subsidy and the concept is intended to be exported to cities such as London, Los Angeles or Hong Kong.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What do you think of this latest initiative by Kerby Jean-Raymond<\/strong>? We couldn’t be happier.<\/p>\n
