Ambi Skincare, developed by and for people of color, is partnering with Emerge! A Fashion Runway Show, which is celebrating a decade of diversity on the runway.
As a lead sponsor, all five of Ambi’s The Next Great Face Search winners will be featured in the virtual event, either as models or show commentators, alongside some of the top established and emerging talent in the fashion industry. The winners will all be using Ambi products to achieve a camera-ready complexion.
The Next Great Face Search of Ambi was launched in May 2020 in partnership with model and reality star Cynthia Bailey and The Bailey Agency to uncover the next generation of brand ambassadors who embody the unique beauty and inclusivity of the American multicultural community. The diverse group of winners –including Camera Carter, Teanna Gilliam, Saniyyah Bilal, Destiny Thompson and Heidy Jantzen – all beautifully embody the Ambi brand spirit and also made the perfect fit for participation in designer Terri Stevens’ funkinbeautiful Designs show at Emerge!
"Funkinbeautiful Designs is for the woman who knows who she is – she drips in confidence in her own beautiful style. I design for the woman who when she enters the room everything comes to a halt. The Ambi Next Great Face winners represent the unique beauty that I love for my brand,” said Stevens.
Ambi’s Head of Marketing Nicole Ray Robinson sees the Emerge! platform and the funkinbeautiful Designs label as the perfect merging of shared philosophies and a continued reflection of Ambi’s commitment to expanding the beauty conversation around people of color.
“At Ambi we are committed to empowering women and men of every shade to showcase their own definitions of beauty. Our winners were selected not only because of their #GreatFaces, but also because they represent diverse backgrounds. Each has her own story to tell, and we’re thrilled to offer them the opportunity to add New York Fashion Week as their newest chapter,” commented Robinson.
Emerge! The Fashion Show
Hosted by Ms. Claire Sulmers, the founder of FashionBombDaily.com, and featuring speakers and presenters including André Leon Talley, Fern Mallis, Law Roach, Kenny Burns, Ozwald Boateng and more, the virtual fashion show will highlight top emerging designers from the US, London, and Johannesburg, South Africa.
"I am very excited about Ambi Skincare partnering with Emerge! A Runway Fashion Show for its 10th Anniversary. This show is celebrating talented designers across the globe and I am thrilled that Ambi will be helping recognize those talents," said Dionne Williams, creator & producer of Emerge! Fashion Show.
In addition to the brand’s Next Great Faces being integrated into the show, as part of the partnership Ambi will also have a branded presence within the show’s live stream, on its social platforms, and be included in the event’s “swag bags.”
Tune in to watch Emerge! The Fashion Show on February 16th at 6 pm CST / 7pm EST.
