I think it goes without saying that we are all existing in various levels of constant anxiety starting this year off. It's hard to describe the mixture of emotions I'm feeling right now. Everything in my personal life and the world is changing so fast. Watching so many people I love in so much pain and so many communities getting their basic human rights destroyed is heartbreaking, to say the least. While it feels almost odd to be engaging in fashion week right now, it's been really wonderful getting to connect and unload with my community. I truly believe the best way of processing things like this is to be with people who share those feelings and feel them together. It can become so scary and powerless when you hold all the weight on just yourself. The more I've been open, the more I feel in control of things I can do and ways I can help.
