Harlem’s Fashion Row (HFR)—a collective dedicated to amplifying Black talent in fashion—has partnered with Gap to spotlight the creative influence of Black designers in American fashion.

With designs by A. Potts, BruceGlen, Kaphill, N’Gai, and Richfresh, the collection blends heritage with innovation, offering bold yet wearable styles that reflect each designer’s journey.

More than just a reimagining of classic wardrobe essentials, the Gap x Harlem’s Fashion Row collection underscores the impact of Black designers, even as the industry scales back diversity initiatives. It also reinforces Gap’s commitment as a long-standing community partner of HFR since 2019 to building a more equitable retail industry. 

“Our partnership with Gap has always been about more than fashion; it’s about creating opportunities, breaking barriers, and amplifying the voices of these incredibly talented designers,” said Brandice Daniel, CEO & Founder of HFR in a statement. “This collaboration is especially meaningful as it represents the evolution of our shared vision to reimagine possibilities for designers of color. Together, we’re not only celebrating creativity but also fostering a legacy of inclusivity and empowerment that will inspire generations to come.”  

A Fresh Take On American Classics

Each designer infuses the collection with personal influences and cultural narratives:

• Nicole King, founder of N’Gai, reimagines traditional silhouettes with bold prints and color, adding an element of boyish charm to ultra-feminine designs.
• Krystal A. Phillips of Kaphill, influenced by her Jamaican roots, incorporates rich fabrics and vibrant hues to craft pieces that reflect the spirit and strength of Caribbean culture.
• Patrick Henry, the tailor behind Richfresh, is known for his precise craftsmanship and luxury tailoring, creating garments that exude confidence and self-expression.
• Bruce and Glen Proctor, the twin brothers behind BruceGlen, bring their signature vivid color palettes and gender-inclusive approach to the collection, making bold fashion statements for all.
• Aaron Potts of A. Potts, a designer committed to community and inclusivity, delivers unisex designs that merge utilitarian function with couture sensibility, reflecting a fashion-forward take on accessibility.
