We had the good fortune of connecting with B’Jean Abbott and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi B’Jean, what do you want people to remember about you?
As a business owner, I want my legacy in life to be remembered as a creative designer who made clothes that appealed to the eyes of consumers; as well as to make the customer feel more confident in their skin. When customers wear a piece of clothing from FRVR DFRNT I want them to feel important and unique. The company’s contributions to its industry, its impact on the community and environment, its financial success, and its values and culture. I want to be remembered for my kindness, achievement, integrity, and the way I make people feel. Building a positive and lasting legacy often involves being a good person, making a difference in the lives of others, and leaving a positive impact on the world.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
FRVR DFRNT best describes me. It is a business after my own heart because I’ve know for a long time that I was different from everyone else and my company embodies that. I come from parents that are both entrepreneurs and so it seemed very logical for me as well, however, it wasn’t easy. I still had to learn lessons with vendors and clients. Sometimes experience is the best teacher. I want the world to know that FRVR DFRNT is not just for LBGTQ but for anyone that feels different from the norm. Some of us are just FRVR DFRNT.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to give my shoutout to the Abbott Family for pushing me to my highest potential. What started off as an idea turned into reality with the encouragement and support from my family. Without the love and drive from them, my business would still have been an idea. The Abbotts and close friends also contribute ideas for my collections for the upcoming seasons.
