A Fashionable Life: Thelma Golden

"A Curator of Style"



Thelma Golden is presently the Director and Chief Curator of The Studio Museum in Harlem. The petite powerhouse, style-maven, socialite, activist, art diva and philanthropist has been serving us her sense of style ever since she became the Deputy Director for Exhibitions and Programs in 2000 before succeeding Dr. Lowery Stokes Sims, the Museum’s former Director and President, in 2005. Thelma is heavily involved in numerous charities throughout the international art world and in the New York Art Society.


Thelma and her husband Duro Olowu

Thelma is one lucky woman because there aren't  many women who have husbands who are fashion designers(unless your name is Annette de la Renta, the wife of fashion designer Oscar de la Renta.) and Thelma Golden  happens to be married to London based fashion designer, Duro Olowu. A woman can only hope to be so lucky if her father or husband owns any one of the successful design houses on the planet because she'll always have a great selection of clothes at her disposal.
Who could forget the fabulous New York apartment of Golden's as it appeared in a previous O at Home Magazine a few years ago? Check out the fabulous closet that's made for a stylish Afrolista.
