Bloom Runway X

“Bloom has always been about making room—and not just making room, but celebrating and highlighting talent that’s too often overlooked,” says founder and executive producer Abibat Durosimi. “This isn’t just a runway show. It’s a renaissance. A reclaiming. And a reminder that art, especially from marginalized voices, is what pushes society forward.”

“As some folks want to challenge the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion, Bloom stands firmly in the belief that these principles are not optional—they’re essential,” says Durosimi.

“We’re not just creating a show. We’re creating a space where people are seen, celebrated, and empowered.”
