A conversational piece. "The way we wore", written by @michaelmccollom with a foreword by Earth shaking creative Geoffrey Holder. Shows that the evolution of Black style is full of history, everlasting trends and embarrassing yet risky faux pas. The way Black fashions social currency has been spent over time has not matched its intake. In the sense, combining soulful palettes with high fashion has us swooning over onyx designers such as @christopherjohnrogers and @fenoel. Sir Holder describes how "too relaxed" street fash' sways couture.
Even with the urban flair, Black culture has always added to the
pulse of the high/low fashion balance. Retro Black style in the thrifting era can lead to opportunities for resale and customization in boutique hubs. "The way we wore" Is a guide to what Black fashion was and a template for where it is going.
