About Me

Van Mac-Henry, a gifted fashion designer from Maryland, was introduced to the world of fashion by her African mother, who taught her to cultivate a unique personal style.

 

She pursued Fine Arts at Howard Community College, perfecting her skills in oil painting, wheel throwing, and drawing. Subsequently, she earned a bachelor's degree in Fashion Design from Moore College of Art and Design. Her senior collection, 'Revolt for Fall 2018,' received the Best in Design and Craftsmanship award.

 

'Van Man' embodies a blend of masculine and feminine energies. The brand is a community where people can discover confidence and individuality. The designs span minimalist to maximalist concepts, integrating her West African culture.

 

Van is dedicated to constant creation and the pursuit of excellence in knitting, draping, technical design, and pattern making.
