Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to my unrivaled inspiration. The Original Glamour Girl, Marguerite. My mother planted the root, that fed my passion for fashion, love of art, and everything design. She was a style star, famous for her beautiful smile, killer curves, perfectly coifed hair, and captivating personality. People often tell the story of a transit bus driver who jumped a curb, distracted by the sway of her hips. At age 17, with a body measurement of 34-18-34, she was approached by Jet magazine to be the next swimsuit centerfold. Her parents declined the invitation. The very next year, she appeared in a news reel, atop a float, wearing a custom made, yellow velvet bathing suit. Imagine that vision in 1954. I adore my mother, and I am blessed to be born of unconditional love, a pure heart, and true beauty, inside and out.
