Bling Boss Organization, created and founded by Vanessa Cheatham in November 2019, focuses on bringing all the different kinds of creatives together to form a bigger vision. We believe Cheatham successfully did that with her Bling Boss 2022 Fashion Show event that was held at the Kol Yisrael church in Newburgh, NY.
Cheatham knew that the 845 area had so much to offer and that no one should have to travel to popular areas like NYC to make a name for you. Hosted by America’s Next Top Model (cycle 9 finalist) Bianca Golden and Reporting Live 845 Moochie Merchant.
Bling Boss Organization held it’s first event as a fashion show and it was a MAJOR hit! Cheatham introduced 8 designers within the northeastern region of the U.S who had their own stories to tell and how they started.

Although she was unable to physically attend the event, she made a massive entrance with a group of models that slayed in her designs. Mackie Rondon Shoes is a high-end fashion footwear and accessories label, made in the USA, and was founded and designed in 2019. She studied in the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan and enrolled as a Fashion Design major and minor in Millenary before switching to footwear and accessories.

The pursuit of creating newness within fashion in an authentic manner is what defines and drives the brand.
