Designer and“Project Runway”star Bishme Cromartie, from Baltimore, will kick off the
Baltimore Museum of Industry’s new Labor + Innovation speaker series on the evening of Oct.
9. JENNIFER KATZMAN/KATZMAN PHOTOGRAPHY
Designer, ‘Project
Runway’ star
to kick off BMI
speaker series
By Abigail Gruskin
While attending Reginald F. Lewis High School,
Bishme Cromartie began
designing and sewing
prom dresses for classmates and students at other
schools. There’s no shortage of inspiration in the city
where his fashion career
started.
“A lot of my designs stem
from the imagination I
created while growing up
in Baltimore. … No matter
what or where I was at, or
what part of the city I was
in, you can always tell that
identifying and expressing who you are through
your garments is very
important,” said Cromartie, 33, who now lives in Los
Angeles but once called
Baltimore’s Waverly neighborhood home.
“I love seeing some of the
buildings, like abandoned
buildings or like industrial
buildings, where you can
see how the building was
held up.”
With last year’s Season
20 “Project Runway”
All-Stars win under his
belt and clients including Lizzo, Victoria Monet,
Jennifer Hudson and
Ciara, Cromartie is returning to his hometown for a
talk about his journey as
a designer at the Baltimore Museum of Industry on Oct. 9. The event
will kick off the museum’s
new Labor + Innovation
“A lot of my designs stem from the
imagination I created while growing up
in Baltimore. … No matter what or where
I was at, or what part of the city I was in,
you can always tell that identifying and
expressing who you are through your
garments is very important.”

speaker series co-produced
by Baltimore artist Cheyanne Zadia and moderated by Baltimore podcast
producer Aaron Henkin,
slated to run through June
of next year.
“We really wanted this
talk series to reflect industry leaders, everyday workers, and really tell human
stories about the intersection of work and art,” said
Brianne Mobley, the Baltimore Museum of Industry’s public engagement
manager.
After Cromartie’s solo
appearance, the lineup will
feature multiple speakers
coming together to offer
insight on the Francis Scott
Key Bridge collapse on Dec.
3; women in the culinary
arts on March 13; and AI
technology on June 4.
Mobley said the series
is inspired by the museum’s galleries and collections, including its garment
loft exhibit, which focuses
on Baltimore’s history of
garment making.
Cromartie was preparing for the online debut
of his fashion film “Brutal
Cry” on Sept. 10 during
New York Fashion Week
when he spoke with The
Baltimore Sun, and said
the collection explores the
topic of grief. His older
sister, Chimere Faye Wall,
died from colon cancer
in 2022 after being diagnosed while he appeared
on Season 17 of “Project
Runway”; his new film and
collection is about “releasing the burden of grief and
rediscovering yourself.”
“To come home is kind
of like a home run,” he said.
“The timing of it is perfect.”
IF YOU GO
Bishme Cromartie’s twohour talk at the Baltimore
Museum of Industry will start
at 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 9 and is
free via registration online.
It will be preceded by a
meet and greet for museum
members at 5:30 p.m.
Festive carols and singalongs- a Baltimore tradition!
