Hey friends, this one is a special one! We collaborated with Melbourne Fashion Festival this year to host a talk exploring culture, creativity and what breaking barriers in the fashion industry look like.  We had the pleasure of speaking to international model, Malaan Ajang & creative director/stylist, Karinda Mutabazi, two dynamic creators that have really made a name for themselves in the fashion industry and in Australia.

We touched on how these ladies got into the industry, the challenges they faced including; lack of experience & fetishism,  how they overcame these challenges and what the future of fashion looks like in Australia and across the globe. If you’re interested in fashion, a creative trying to learn more about how you can create opportunities or you just want to hear a lit conversation, be sure to tap in as our panellists shared top-notch stories and advice.

Audience’s questions:

Question 1: Do you feel like the industry fetishises your look? (directed at Malaan)

Question 2: Is there a quote you live by (a life mantra)?
