Black Honey Unfiltered is an event unlike any event Brooklynn Creative, FEPC has ever created. Matter of fact, B.H.U. is the only event of it's kind. Fashion shows and fashion concierges services have been the very existence of Brooklynn Creative, FEPC. B.H.U. is the start of recreating the culture of my business to storytelling through Fashion, Art, and Music. Black Honey Unfiltered is a nude gallery exhibit showcasing a heartfelt story of pain, passion, growth, and grief all in artistic form. Complete vulnerability at it's best and it's worst.
