At the 30th Essence Festival of Culture in New Orleans, the Mielle Organics ‘Beauty Con’ booth welcomed hair enthusiasts into the exciting world of the ‘Mielleverse,’ brimming with inspiration and innovation. Founder Monique Rodriguez, a festival regular, made a big return this year with an even more impressive pop-up shop.
The event featured tailored beauty tips and celebrity endorsements of favorite Mielle Organics products, offering various engaging experiences. Throughout the weekend, Monique, the RN turned CEO, showcased her impeccable fashion sense, donning a chic black-and-white polka dot mini dress by Dolce & Gabbana and a striking fuchsia lace outfit by Bronx & Banco.
Rapper and songwriter Lady London attended the event, and our Fashion Bomb correspondent Sheek caught up with her to discuss her stylish outfit. Lady London, a New Yorker, wore a Dsquared choker, a top by African designer Kwame Adusei, and Rene Caovilla shoes.
In contrast, singer Letoya Luckett stood out in a multicolored Cynthia Rowley dress paired with clear yellow pumps. Mirroring Luckett’s vibrant style, our Fashion Bomb CEO joined the Mielle pop-up shop in a nude sequined Staud dress and signature finger waves, enjoying the festivities alongside Luckett, Lance Gross, and others.
