DESIGNER’S VISIT TO A MUSEUM INSPIRED HER TO LAUNCH AN ORIGINAL SHAWL COLLECTION
When Queens, New York, designer Dr. Tenaria Drummond-Smith visited the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, DC, she had no idea that she was going to be inspired to launch her very own shawl collection. But that’s exactly what happened when she saw an exhibit of an original shawl worn by Harriet Tubman in 1911.
She says that after being inspired by it, she prayed about designing her own line of shawls without using any patterns. She calls it the SWAG SHAWL.
