EVERYONE TAKES NOTICE when Gabriella Karefa-Johnson enters a room; with her infectious exuberance, she brings the party with her wherever she goes. You feel the same energy walking into her four-story home in Bedford-Stuyvesant, which is filled with an eclectic array of furniture and art mostly found online. "I became very obsessed with Live Auctioneers," she says. "I didn't really have the time, or the bandwidth, or the driver's license, for going to estate sales and picking up furniture." No need for her to hire an interior decorator she knows what she is looking for and what she likes.
Karefa-Johnson has no time to waste. The way she has navigated her career in fashion has demonstrated this sense of purpose, and she's worked hard to stay true to who she is. Most recently, this meant leaving her job at Vogue to throw herself into creating her own role in the industry.
