Meet the Founder
Donte Bryson Jr.
Donte Bryson Jr. is the visionary designer and creative director behind BryLamar, a brand built on resilience, innovation, and cultural impact. While serving in the Navy, his father recognized his creative spark and encouraged him to explore fashion. After his father’s unexpected passing in 2020, Donte took a leap of faith. On Christmas Eve 2021, from a 120-square-foot military barracks room, BryLamar was born—built from ambition, grit, and an unshakable belief in the power of dreams.
With no formal training, Donte taught himself fashion design, branding, and creative direction, turning obstacles into opportunities. He began with graphic tees, hoodies, and sweatsuits before releasing varsity and biker jackets, each piece reflecting his evolving vision. Now, with the launch of BryLamar’s first handbag, he is taking the next step toward his ultimate goal—building a full-fledged American fashion house. As BryLamar expands into luxury handbags, accessories, and footwear, Donte’s mission is clear—to redefine modern luxury, inspire dreamers, and build an empire that lasts.
Our Mission
BryLamar was built for resilient dreamers—those who dare to chase what others say is impossible. We blend luxury craftsmanship with streetwear influences to create fashion that empowers and inspires. More than just clothing, BryLamar is an experience—through storytelling, film, and community, we celebrate the journey of dreamers who turn ambition into reality.
Our Vision
What started with outerwear is growing into something greater—a full-scale American fashion house. From jackets to handbags, accessories to footwear, BryLamar is building a world where fashion fuels ambition. Our vision is global, but our heart remains the same: to create pieces that make you feel unstoppable.
