(1/3) Wanted to design and sew a more casual “sTreeTwEaR” inspired look for once but still make it my own. Most important to me is always creating a unique/interesting silhouette, so it was a fun challenge to do that while still making something relaxed and reminiscent of the boxy, straight, laid-back silhouette commonly seen in streetwear... but I did it! I’m real real proud of how my first sewn puffer coat has turned out! Painted drawstring jeans, portal-hole top, and graphic design also by me.🤸🏾‍♀️

Ps: I’m not as mean as I always look in these pictures. I just don’t know how to hold my face.💀 I can’t wait to stop bein my own model so I can lighten the mood of this grid, teehee✨

(3/3) A 3-look capsule collection inspired by the newest exhibition, A Countervailing Theory, from my faaaaaavorite artist @toyinojihodutola .

I wish I could transport to London and see it in all of its beauty, but grateful for how much it’s been able to serve me from here. 🙏🏾.

About #ACountervailingTheory :
“The exhibition was created specifically for the space, and sees Ojih Odutola crafting an epic narrative of an imagined ancient myth set in central Nigeria, depicting a society dominated by female rulers and served by male labourers. It is an exploration of social hierarchies and the consequences of transgressing power dynamics.”

Not even 700,000 little pigs could build a brick house sturdy enough to withstand the flames of fed-the-fuck-up. ...and after decades of digging graves, planting bricks, and bullet-showers, they are surprised to wake up one day and find that nothing grew from that soil but civil unrest and destruction.

Fourth of July came early as fireworks popped, and good people stole their freedom back. Power was exchanged as 12 ran for cover and many more flexed their potency. Communities banded together to defend, themselves. And no gang affiliation mattered cause there was a common enemy— the largest gang of them all.

This all reminds me of that one scene at the end of Little Fires Everywhere: The perfect world, built only perfect for those who we’ll call The Elena’s, is being burned down by “little fires everywhere”. Everyone knows that there is an innate problem with this perfection. One that will never be fixed until their world becomes ashes and is forced to be rebuilt from the ground up. And yet, in the heat of the moment, as the flames blaze, and smoke threatens everyone’s life, there are still The Elena’s— in denial, shutting their eyes and ears to the destruction of the world around them. But with them acknowledging it or not, their world will come down. It will be disseminated because when all of the minorities and “less powerful” people around them have had enough, and come together, and mobilize, The Elenas’ power becomes outweighed. Their voice becomes obsolete. They will have no choice but to run with the others or be killed in the fire. As always, they have a choice.
