About Carlton Jones

 

Carlton Jones began turning heads early in his career as the stylist to begin the transformation of the image of Queen Latifah from rapper to the beautiful songstress we know today. With over two decades of experience serving as an image consultant, fashion director, style correspondent and wardrobe designer, Carlton began combining his love of style and fashion, with delight from traveling to some of the most breathtaking destinations imaginable.

Carlton has fused his fondness of relaxed fluidity, sensual fabrics, colors and prints along with a seasoned ability to forgive and accentuate. The genesis of his eponymous, resort-inspired collection utilizes his experience dressing the needs of bodies, ranging from Halle Berry and Erykah Badu to Aretha Franklin and Michelle Obama.

Believing that fabrics have energy, Carlton seeks to sustainably amplify the intimacy we have with the textiles that touch our skin. These ideals fueled Carlton’s ambition to create travel-inspired clothing suitable for any metropolitan streets. This became the catalyst for the brand’s anchoring belief; Resort isn’t a destination; it's a Feeling!
