Christian Allaire is a genuine trailblazer. As person of indigenous descent (he is Ojibwe), he rarely saw role models during his adolescence who shared his cultural or ethnic heritage, as his passion for fashion began to blossom. Since then, he has has transformed his role as a high-profile style/fashion writer for Vogue, Elle, Refinery29, etc., into a platform to bring diverse ethnic and cultural designs, and their designers, to prominence.
