    A Cursive Conversation with Korto Momolu

    Introducing Korto Momolu

    Korto Momolu, womens apparel Designer and Project Runway Allstar, sits with us at The Cursive Curator for a live interview revealing lessons learned as a celebrated Fashion Designer, producing runway diamonds under pressure, infusing her Liberian heritage into her fashion forward collections, and motherhood as a Creative. Join us for A Cursive Conversation in our intimate gallery in Washington D.C.'s historic Dupont Circle immediately followed by a VIP reception of photo-ops & Brownbelle cocktail at the Brown Beauty Co-op.

    About The Designer:

    Inspired by her African roots, Liberian-born fashion designer and stylist Korto Momolu (pronounced Cut • Toe – Mo • Mo • Lu) is stamping her global brand with fashion-forward women’s wear, ultimately creating art that celebrates the essence of her rich heritage through the use of traditional and luxury fabrics. ​A graduate of the L’Academies des Couturiers Design Institute in Ottawa, Ontario [Korto relocated to Canada in 1990 following the coup in Liberia a year prior]. Korto launched her custom line while working as an independent fashion designer in 2006. Advancing her field experience, she auditioned for and earned a spot on the 5th season of Bravo TV’s hit show, Project Runway. Throughout the season, Korto’s primary signature fuse of color and diversity in style and presentation, in addition to her feisty spirit, resonated well with audiences. In the end, it earned her the prize of “fan favorite” and ultimately, a placement of 1st runner-up at the season’s close. (Read more on kortomomolu.com)
