The 2024 presidential election is now just a few weeks away and luminaries in the fashion industry have been working overtime to rally voters ahead of the big day. Using clothing as a vehicle of political expression, brands large and small are pulling out all the stops ahead of November 5th and they’re doing so in style. “Elections provide the best possible opportunity to ensure that our voices are heard, our concerns are addressed, and that our contributions guarantee a democracy for the future generation,” designer Nili Lotan wrote in a post to her more than 200 thousand Instagram followers.
To those questioning how clothing might correlate to the election, multi-hyphenated creative Peshawn Bread who collaborated with Planned Parenthood Action Fund in September told Vogue previously that the answer is simple. “Fashion can create political awareness from graphics to silhouettes. For those who doubt that advocacy isn’t seen in fashion, I ask that they look into their favorite designer and think of the political environment when that artist was creating.
” Chief creative officer of TomboyX, Willie Norris , also part of the PPAF designers group, furthered these sentiments, adding that it’s a way to spark important conversations. “Fashion has a powerful impact on how we see the world and the stories we share through our clothing and imagery,” Norris told Vogue .
