Harlem Haberdashery, a leading fashion boutique with a Harlem Renaissance influence, has partnered with Vontelle Eyewear to launch a limited, premium collection of eyewear. Officially launched in New York City during Juneteenth weekend at Chase Bank, the collaboration between the two Black women-owned brands is made possible through the Chase for Business minority entrepreneurship program.
In 2022, Harlem Haberdashery President and CEO Sharene Wood connected with Vontélle Eyewear’s co-founders Tracy Vontélle Green and Nancey Flowers-Harris at a small business series hosted by Chase for Business. Together, they ideated the eyewear collection inspired by Harlem’s past, present, and future culture and style.
