NEW YORK CITY FASHION WEEK IS COMING. Normally that means that a bunch of crazy looking, fly ass creative outsiders will invade our city and turn it into a flash mob of outfits, designers, lights, lattes, and all sorts of other fashion-y things. Really it’s a time for me to avoid the city and just eat pizza in the Bronx per ushe. But then I got invited by Anita Dolce Vita of DapperQ to walk in this amazing queer fashion show and then I fainted. Because wtf, me in a fashion show? It took me a minute to own that I’m going to be involved in this, to own my body, my shaky confidence, and to find pride in the amazing way that I’ve been asked to be a part of queer culture and QPOC visibility. When I think of NYC fashion week, runway models, and that whole world, I don’t ever think of regular people with round bodies, brown bodies, queer presentations: I think of Kate Moss and all the people that look like her. But this event, The DapperQ Fashion Show, is an act of revolt. It’s a fist in the air for dykes, queer people, gender neutral people, trans people, all the fucking fabulous beautiful people to shout We belong here and We will create our own spaces.
