A couple days ago someone showed me a style similar to my DRumPer , the hems seemed to have the same pull and they seemed similar , but the cut and drape were different. The item was a polyester, the DRumPer is cotton or rayon spandex. There are other differences least of which is the price the version in the ad was $8.99. My response, we sell to a different customer.
Look we KNOW that at that price modern slavery is involved. The individual who chooses to buy at that price point simply does not care. Few know what is authentic black style , Authentic black design and even the various aspects of black design.
Every adult is free to choose how they spend their money, but do not be offended when others call a spade a spade… My choice as a designer is to be authentic, to be honest with myself even when I am not making the right choice.
As a descendant of slaves and as a consumer I want to know #whomademyclothes. Even if, especially if it is a Black owned company or heritage clothing. It is the law that it be stated , but I have the right to ask. As a woman I want what I wear to impacts the lives of others. It’s actually why I designed these prices specifically to e the social commerce aspect of fashion. In the image is the shell and the new long sleeve tee. As an artist I want authentic high quality fashion blacks as my canvas. the image in the above picture is a screen print with 3D embroidery!
