As designers, stylists, photographers, teachers, students, researchers, models, artists, graphic designers, creative directors, agents, writers, and editors, we continuously strive for a world where creative expression, cultural exchange, and collaboration can blossom. The violence of the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine goes against everything we stand for. This war brings nothing but destruction, suffering and grief.
Fashion has power. Fashion is a trillion-dollar industry with gigantic cultural, economic and even political influence. In times of crisis, it’s easy to dismiss that power, to call it superfluous, frivolous, tone-deaf, hypocrite or non-essential. But our supply chains connect countries across the globe, our media reach masses of followers everywhere, our shared language of creativity is universal. We are an industry bursting with talent, skills, networks and connections.
We demand our governments to continue enforcing strong sanctions and to contribute aid so freedom, democracy and sovereignty can be assured in Ukraine. We also ask the fashion community and influential fashion houses, in particular, to not be silent, use their platforms and offer hands-on help.
