The fashion of the world is to avoid cost, and you encounter it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's not that I don't believe in creativity and innovation and new ideas, and the creativity that comes with fashion, which I really respect. But one of my biggest concerns is just how cheap we expect everything to be.
Fashion is fun, ridiculously fun. But it's base and it's wrong. You're not doing anything good for the world. You're just saying, 'Buy it, buy it, buy it.'
Fashion is a very particular world, as you know.
I think the responsibility lies with the fashion world as a collective. We have to demand more variety.
Expensive clothes are a waste of money.
Fashion is not frivolous. It is a part of being alive today.
Fashion is capitalism, and it will be fixed by what the market demands.
I make 98% of my collection in New York City and am generating jobs, so fashion isn't just frivolous for me. I understand levity about it. I also understand the depth of it.
Fashion is just an interpretation of the culture around us.
In general, fashion is decorative, it's protective, it acknowledges that the world does involve conflict, and you might be attacked by assumptions, presumptions, and attitudes.
