About Jolie Noire

Photographed: Owners, and sisters, Kim (L) and Keyondra (R)

 

The idea behind the brand/statement Jolie Noire, is that black is beautiful. Jolie Noire stands for Pretty Black in French. We are primed to think dark colors (specifically black) are negative and light colors are positive. In an effort to level the playing field, we're working to shape the minds of onlookers and change the meaning, emotions, and values associated with black. Color is something that doesn't come pre labeled, we label it... At Jolie Noire we choose to believe that black, like other colors, is beautiful! 

-Keyondra + Kim, Jolie Noire

I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. -Psalm 139:14
