Ballerific Woman: June Ambrose, The Godmother Of Stylists

In a perfect world, men and women would receive equal pay. African American women would be presented the same opportunities as their white counterparts. Rejection would be based on qualifications rather than race.

Unfortunately, this world is far from perfect, however, there are people, more specifically women, who have dedicated their time, money and education to make a positive change. They’ve used their experiences and their encounters with injustices to fight and/or create more opportunities for their children and their children’s children, in an effort to make the world a better place. They’ve put our pain and problems on their backs and created space for change, new opportunities for our brothers and sisters to excel and succeed in a world that is designed against us. This is #BlackExcellence. These are #BallerificWomen.

One of these special women is June Ambrose, the Godmother of Stylists. Whether she was designing custom pieces for Sean “Diddy” Combs and Busta Rhymes, one of a kind pieces for Jay Z & Will Smith or styling and crafting couture outfits for divas such as Zoe Saldana and Mariah Carey, June gave many stylists the inspiration that was needed to be successful. June has given us countless trends and major fashion statements that are found in popular culture. Let’s be honest, not many stylists would have thought to use a trash bag as a fashion statement but June did in Missy Elliott’s classic music video, “The Rain.”

With an impressive resumé and amazing clientele, June has proved that there are no limits to the many opportunities and challenging ventures she has yet to pursue, as her amazing journey has only just begun.
