Evette Holyfield

Life for women is anything but easy. You have your small clusters of materialistic, worldly young women wrapped up in the splendor of “society”; the workaholic self- proclaimed “independent” women; and those who are exemplar of “Model” women in America. Beauty is also found within a woman of good quality, skillful background who values the knowledge of her individual worth in its entirety. A prime example of a “good” woman would be the emerging entrepreneur, seasoned wardrobe stylist and budding philanthropist Evette Holyfield.

The Atlanta, Georgia native is the second oldest of eleven children. “I come from a big family. We were all very active in sports growing up and are very supportive in each of our individual careers and goals.” In younger years, Holyfield recalls her very successful high school journey as a track & field star at Landmark Christian School. As she continued that journey into the doors of Auburn University, she crossed over into the world of art during her travels to places such as India, Germany, Paris, Canada and the Caribbean. In no time she very soon realized her deep passion for artistic details and recently became a graduate of Savannah College of Art & Design in Atlanta. As the daughter of legendary Olympic and 5 time Heavyweight Champion Evander Holyfield, Evette naturally possesses the ability to focus on her target with direct aim, purpose and dedication.

The young businesswoman is destined for nothing short of long-term success. At first glance one would think that Evette is nothing more than a pretty face, but after one encounter, it becomes clear that this fast paced, rigid young woman is far more than attractive but clever, educated, vast, witty and more importantly determined to show the world that she is more than a “mere socialite” that stems from a privileged background. Evette has lined her business plans “vividly” and set to execute them full speed ahead in the near future, if not immediately.
Making appearances on Bravo’s top rated reality series Atlanta Housewives and representing her father as project location manager in partnership with BET’s hit TV show “The Game” & The CW Network series “Vampire Diaries” are a part of Evette’s quiet footsteps planted in the world of TV, fashion and film. Although fashion and media has opened up several opportunities, she remains very close to her community. In recent years Evette has been proven and noted to be a “good balance” for society’s youth, various charity efforts, and is labeled as one of the influential tastemakers in the entertainment industry.
Evette continues to be a part of awareness programs that include: Breast Cancer, Feeding the Homeless, and most recently, Global Clean Water Campaigns. She began her non-profit efforts, by traveling to schools talking with young girls from all walks of life to focus more on their goals and dreams; less on sexual activity; and encourages them to practice sustaining from sex while still at a young age. Another objective for the young “queen of many trades” includes a luxury shoe line for women.
Evette Holyfield is a great example of what can be defined as “the new millennium” action packed woman, gifted, determined, and painfully attentive. Her list of accomplishments and achievements continue to extend as she lays the foundation to be in the forefront for years to come, helping to change the world, one day at a time.
