Following the block party, a roomful of over 100 style influencers and tastemakers gathered to pay homage to four innovators in fashion during the magazine’s Street Style Awards: singer Ciara (“Curator of Cool”); actress Gabrielle Union (who received her “Closet Crush” award earlier during ESSENCE’s Street Style Block Party); designer Charles Elliott Harbison (“Designer to Watch”); and celebrity stylist Jason Rembert (“Style Disrupter”). Other attendees at the private reception included Orange Is the New Black star Vicky Jeudy, singer/TV personality Mel B, celebrity hairstylist Ursula Stephen and more.
