That's how I knew it was time to dream again
Meet Shamika Brown, the founder of Ambers Fashion Production Company and a passionate advocate in the fashion industry with over 6 years of experience.
My journey in fashion is driven by a deep love for creating shows and working closely with models and designers to bring their unique visions to life. I firmly believe that fashion shows are more than just events; they are platforms for unrestrained self-expression and living art.
My expertise lies in orchestrating fashion shows that are not only a spectacle of the latest trends but also platforms for highlighting the crucial issue of domestic abuse. We are committed to empowering black women and elevating their voices in every event we produce.
