Palestinian designer Yasmeen Mjalli reveals she was on the brink of closing her fashion brand, Nöl Collective, after Israeli customs destroyed one of their fabric shipments — until Olivia Rodrigo commissioned a dress to inaugurate her Daisy Chains festival.
“I was genuinely like, maybe we should stop, maybe this is our last effort. I was just so tired. [But Rodrigo’s commission] was like divine intervention. Obstacles are always going to be there, but if you can adapt you will be rewarded. I rise and I rise and I rise.”

… I believe it, @SusanSarandon! As a bonafide B’nai Yisroel who likes her cholent pretty mushy, dense and cozy on a lazy shabbos, I remain as perplexed as the rest as to what transpires next or how to square any of the layers of grief & beauty spilling out in all directions on this one. Love to be believe in hope. #FreePalestine. It can’t still be that radical to say that, can it? (Alas, this was the draft!)
