The Art of Heritage
Every design begins with a story.
From the colors and symbols to the materials, structure, and smallest details, the HBCU Heritage Collection is intentionally created to honor the character and distinction of each institution — HBCU culture and school pride, reinterpreted through a luxury design lens.
Whether carried on campus, at an alumni event, while traveling, or as part of everyday life, each tote is designed to make a statement: I know where I come from. I know what I represent. And I carry my legacy with distinction.

The Bull
1867.
From its founding in 1867, Johnson C. Smith University has shaped generations of leaders in Charlotte and beyond. The Golden Bull is more than a mascot — it is a symbol of strength, tenacity, and the enduring legacy of an institution that has never stopped moving forward.

The Vision
Culture, creativity, and the power of representation.
Sorority Me and the HBCU Heritage Collection were born from a passion for culture, creativity, and the power of representation. As the founder, I wanted to create something that felt different — something that could honor the traditions and legacies that have shaped generations while presenting them through a modern luxury lens.
Sorority Me reimagines the colors, symbols, and traditions of the four historically Black sororities as sophisticated luxury statement pieces. The HBCU Heritage Collection expands that vision, celebrating the institutions that have educated, empowered, and inspired generations of leaders.
Each tote is designed with intention. From the color palette and materials to the stitching, silhouettes, and details, every element is an opportunity to tell a story.
