CHLOE FAITH HARPER
Style can’t be bought, but it definitely can be created. In the midst of designer icons, interns, and those just beginning in the industry, sits the humbly talented, Chloe F. Harper, Chloe is the visionary behind Vitamin C. Clothing. Vitamin C is modern, sexy, fun, and perfect for any woman, and any size. The reference to nutrition came from Harper wanting her clothes to be something people could consider daily staples.” Similar to the nutrition your get from healthy foods, Vitamin C will ensure that you maintain a well-balanced wardrobe,” is how she puts it. Based out of Atlanta, the line brings the city known for entertainment, some real style.
Ms. Harper majored in Fashion Merchandising and Apparel Design at Georgia Southern University. Upon receipt of her degree she made New York her home, and interned under one of fashion’s gate keeper, Diane Von Furstenberg. Next up for her was Chicago, where Chloe Harper worked with The Ebony Fashion Fair, as a wardrobe assistant. All of these experiences birthed the dream of owning a company. “Fashion has taught me to adapt to changing trends, while always remaining true to my vision”, states Chloe.
When asked what feeds Vitamin C’s ability to stay relevant, Harper shares this, “Vitamin C Clothing is influenced by the women the clothes are designed for. Garments are comfortable, washable and can transition from day to evening. Vitamin C gives its customers clothing with functionality that is easy to wear, but still fashionable.” Finally there is a line that understands the functionality women seek, while never losing sight of look ladies are going for. Even outside of the everyday woman, stars such as Nicole Ari Parker, Tameika “Tiny” Cottle, Mario, Kandi Burress, and Nicki Minaji, among others, have all had a needed dose of Vitamin C.
A designer is so much more than what they do. Their creative gifts often translate into the unique beings outside of sketching and sewing. Chloe F. is a handywoman, able to fix and repair just like, if not better than, most men. She has cosmetology skills, and had used that as a side hustle over the years, and know her beers just as well as her wines. You can find her as a regular at beer festival in the city. She isn’t typical in any way, and neither are her talents. Chloe also has a sound spiritual and family base, and credits that to much of her success.
Currently, she has transitioned into the television and film industry. She has worked as a seamstress for "Single Ladies 2", "Rectify", "Second Generation Wayans", "The Anna Nicole Smith Story", "Devious Maids" and "Lets Stay Together". Ms. Harper is a prime and positive example for young ladies with big dreams. Actually she is a shining light for anyone with aspirations. Chloe shares this advice with anyone wanting to break into the industry, “learn/study your craft, be as self-sufficient as possible, and if no one gives you an opportunity step out in faith on your own” She has not only stepped out in nice heels and with her sewing machine in tow, she has designed her own way.
