I don’t want to make this racial but Africa is the creator of all things. It’s unfortunate how white cultures stolen and claimed as their own and attempted to erase
Loved this montage but one African-American designer who stormed Paris and deserves a mention is Patrick Kelly. I loved his use of colours and buttons as decorative flourishes
Did you all know that Jacqueline" Jackie" Bouvier Kennedy choose an afro american stylist for designing her weeding dress instead of the French House of Chanel which she was the muse.
Unfortunately she never received credit for it while she was alive. She wasn’t allowed to put her name on clothing labels, and Jackie never mentioned her name when saying who designed the dress, she just said “I wanted to go to France, but a colored dressmaker did it.” Wish Ann Lowe would have received the praise for her beautiful designs when she was alive, but unfortunately she didn’t because she was Black
Ooh this is good!! Half of the time I have no idea what the MET Gala theme is until I see the celebrities, even then it's hard to understand, because let's face it, not all of them follow the theme, and they all have different interpretations of the theme. This was very educative and informative for the people who are not very well-versed in fashion like me!
@@mikaylasmith7600 I agree. could have had some potential but most of the looks made no sense to the theme. A lot that I was confused about made more sense when I heard the person explain the look and how it pertained to the theme but most…disappointing.
This series with Hamish Bowles is very interesting and informative, but who's idea was it to leave no pauses, and rush through it at the speed of light? It needs more elaboration, more examples to illustrate the great information presented. These videos each need to be at least 15 minutes long.
Blue jeans, denim, baseball caps, athletic shoes, t-shirts, hoodies, cowboy hats, boots, western wear, leather motorcycle jackets, aviators/sunglasses, and polo shirts are originally American and not a combination of different world cultures
I wouldn't call the Telfar Shopping bag vegan as Vegan is mostly known to be plant based. The shopping bag is made of vinyl- which is plastic. that's not vegan.
I would bet a few hundred that atleast one person is gonna show up in some flag inspired ensemble…I don’t have hopes that is gonna be great if they do either
I love that at 7:42 the guy was talking about racial inclusivity but only black hands were shown. Racial inclusivity is meant to be INCLUSIVE to all races, not just 1.
