all this recent discourse just proves americans love to see themselves in a forever state of victimhood but never ever in a position of privilege which is why they get so angry whenever someone else brings up the privilege the average American has over the global south

@meetapersecond They're hiding flaws in the design from you!

A lot of people on this app want to call folks broke and ugly out one side of their mouth yet lament classism and exclusionary beauty standards out the other, because their actual point of contention isn’t the existence of these things, it’s that they’re not on top of the pile.

[Cora Harrington @CoraCHarrington]

Sometimes I think about how nineteenth century abolitionists tried to get people to boycott cotton produced by slave labor, and people were like, “Noooo…I love my fashionable clothes too much and cotton produced without slave labor is too expensive and too hard to find.”

Yeah.

I need everyone to unpack what they mean by “flattering” and why they think that way.

[Shelton Boyd-Griffith @flyrebel]

In my nerdy fashion-analysis brain lol, it always puts me in mind of the Fates from ancient Greek lore or even Shakespeare’s Weird Sisters. Like he’s using the opening looks and the subtle repetition to foreshadow what’s coming.

You really need to explore more of Dior apart from John Galliano and the bar jacket

[Jade | Sustainable Fashion 🪬🍷 @modamensch]

@wlscarah Every so often I'll remind folks that you can explore silhouettes other than cinched waists and every time, people say, "No! Not me! I would look like a balloon/a box/a sack/a really big, unsightly thing, and it's unsightly to take up space! I have to be as small as possible!"

[Jade | Sustainable Fashion 🪬🍷 @modamensch]

@wlscarah And fatphobia, as a lot of the insistence upon defining your waist is rooted in wanting to "prove that you're skinny."

[charles @barnhillls]

it’s just waist waist waist with y’all

Behind the glamour and the celebrity of the Met Gala are a bunch of nerdy historians who dedicate their lives and careers to this field. The Costume Institute needs to be preserved.

[Rachel Tashjian Wise @theprophetpizza]

The Met’s director told me abt the #metgala: “This is not a show on Amazon. This is not a show on Lauren Sánchez’s dresses. One needs to be really clear that what our donors are supporting is the program of the Met, & the ideas of our curators, & the integrity of the institution”

[DUDA @saintdemie]

heidi klum for sure understood the “fashion is art” dress code #metgala

[chloe iris @chloeikennedy]

my problem with fashion as art reduced to “this dress kinda looks like that painting” is that it denies fashion artistic credibility outside its proximity to more traditional mediums
