Black and brown creatives explore how they worked their way to the top of the fashion industry. In conversation withthese editors, social media stars, and more reveal the unforgettable moment that would change their careers completely.CaSandra Diggs was named president of the CFDA in 2020, making history as the organization’s first Black president. Her former job at the consultancy Harrison & Shriftman landed her a position at the council as a business manager in 2001.
I’ve been at the CFDA since 2001. I came as a business manager, and that incorporated everything that had to do with logistics and strategic operations. I recognized that there was a way for me to take different elements of the business, put them together, and create one role for myself. Most people want the P.R., marketing, and forward-facing roles, but I saw the power of the business role. I really gravitated toward that and took it by the horns and made it into what I wanted to do.
Every role that I’ve had at CFDA has built me to that next level where I felt comfortable. When I was finally tapped to take on this role, I felt that I was able to do it successfully. I felt I had the skill set and temperament to navigate with confidence.
