Bold political messages at New York Fashion Week

天蓝蓝

The fashion industry is becoming increasing political. Calvin Klein played This is Not America and a Mexican immigrant designer sent 'f*** your wall' underwear down the runway at New York Fashion Week.

For his first collection at the helm of the iconic American label, Calvin Klein, Raf Simons blasted David Bowie's 'This is Not America' to open and close his show on Friday morning.

Next to make a clear political statement was the budding LRS Studio, whose Mexico-born designer declared 'f*** your wall' and 'no ban, no wall' on the back of models' white underwear.

These two men were some of the designers that used their shows to voice their opinion, as the fashion industry begins to follow Hollywood's suit and make a comment on the political climate in the United States.

LRS Studio and designer Raul Solis chose to make a bold political statement by sending a clear message to President Trump. A model sported white underpants that declared 'f*** your wall' at New York Fashion Week on Friday afternoon
