Reflecting on his remarkable professional trajectory, Travis Hamilton reminisces about a pivotal moment that continues to inspire each of his collections. He shares, “I’ve been fortunate to encounter incredible experiences in this industry and to cross paths with immensely talented professionals who serve as perpetual wellsprings of inspiration. Among these, one standout moment remains the inclusion of Negris LeBrum in the August 2021 Vanity Fair Italy editorial (Print issue), alongside esteemed global heritage brands such as Gucci, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Dolce & Gabbana.”
Hamilton’s odyssey in the fashion realm is deeply intertwined with his passion for storytelling. Drawing inspiration from the extraordinary love saga of Negris, a captivating French Creole woman, and Sam LeBrum, a charismatic black man, Hamilton’s designs pay homage to their enduring romance, which unfolded amidst the tumultuous social backdrop of the 1940s. Against all odds, their love triumphed, and Hamilton’s enchanting creations serve as poignant vessels, continuing to narrate their timeless tale to audiences worldwide.
