September Fashion Week |NYC

The worst fashion week ever.

This particular fashion week sucked as it touched on suppressed feelings of anti-fashion I've been harboring. Those that know me; know I love fashion, both the business and creative sectors.

However, fashion-season-after-fashion-season, I see the narrative shifting toward a more hyper-consumerist manner of doing business. The streets are full of influencers shamelessly doing anything for the perfect social media picture. I watched a girl climb a street post in heels. She almost twisted her ankle for a photo the photographer might not use.

Here's the thing.

What people do for their brands is their preference. However, where I take notice - is when fashion show attendees are gathered outside of Milk Studios (myself included), and feet away, a homeless woman is in tattered clothing with her life spread about in milk crates. The irony was unnerving.  

I've come to a point where I realize the current fashion system we've created for ourselves is not sustainable. The fashion red flags are up, and I have no interest in ignoring humanity because it's not trendy.
