THE CONFESSIONAL SHOWROOM FASHION SHOW NYFW

INTERVIEW WITH JOHNNY FOR

FASHION MAGAZINE NYC NYC

By Camilla Cozzie

What inspired the cosmic dream theme?

Johnny: I was really excited to have a venue like Nebula to showcase the talented designers and team that we have. My initial thought was how could I find a venue that was just as unique as the talent of our designers.

How did you choose your team?

Johnny: I never have the same team for each show. As the confessional showroom grows new talent comes in everyday. The one thing I love about my business and why I enjoy it so much is because there's so much talent out there in the world I wish I could show everybody. Having the business that I have allows me to show The uniqueness different people have in the industry.

What do you hope people took away from the show?

Johnny: off to show off the talent of our designers, But also to show the fashion industry how powerful The Confessional showroom really is. Rumors were “They are only going to have 400 people their not that big”. In reality our show topped NYFW with the line wrapped around the blocks and over 2,000 people showing up to see our work. We wanted people to take away every aspect of the show from the music to the production to the designs.

What inspires you to push the boundaries in the fashion industry?

Jhnny: Fashion has become boring, NYFW shows are all the same now. I take pride in curating an experience for the people rather than a regular show. I want to bring fashion back to life and really show how it doesn’t just affect what someone wears but how it makes them feel.

Where do you see the company in ten years?

Johnny: We think big, so think what you want when I say this but a fashion hotel and a showroom with brands from around the world on a planet in the space period.

What's next?

Johnny: Right now we are working on our opening launch for our 3rd showroom in Dubai of Winter 2024 as well as our show for September NYFW. All I will say is If you think our Cosmic Dream show at Nebula was big Just wait till you see what we have Planned for this show.
