Today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy, our talented team has melded my past interviews of two ladies that have helped shape the fashion industry of Central Arkansas: Ms. Anita Davis, founder of the Esse Purse Museum, and Ms. Connie Fails, the fashion designer, boutique owner, and manager of the Clinton Museum store.

In her interview, Connie tells the story of how she came to be the designer of Hilary Clinton’s inaugural dress, including her infamous blue hat. And Anita shares her stories of growing up in a small town, her fascination with purses and their purpose, and how she came to establish the unique Esse Purse Museum.

Hear how they both are impacting women in their community through art, culture, and place-making.
