Rick Owens: A New Direction? S/S 21 Menswear SHOWstudio Live Panel Discussion

Darkwah Kyei-Darkwah is joined by Ayo Ojo, David Martin, Nina Van Volkinburg and Mike Hope to discuss the Rick Owens S/S 21 menswear show, during the first digital Paris fashion week. Questioning the reflective nature of this season, the panellists discuss queerness in Owens' work and how designers are responding to the current moment. They also talk about consumers driving positive change and dismantling the hierarchy of fashion from the top down via a changing of the guard.
