Akers has spent her decades-spanning career using fashion to tell the stories of others, but quarantine provided her enough space to tell her own story. Black Owned Everything was just the start. Launched at the height of the pandemic, at a time where moments of Black joy were few and far between, Akers created the Black Owned Everything Instagram account to highlight emerging and established Black-owned brands in fashion, home goods, beauty, and more. She expanded the Instagram account into an e-commerce site that hosts pieces from Fe Noel, Brandon Blackwood NYC, Salone Monet, Skin Butter, Aliette, and more.

I’m thankful for the time I was able to create cool content with Chloe and Halle on their tennis court; designing and collaborating with Macy’s, starting a foundation. Without the lockdown, I probably have had the time to dig into what made that happen.
