Gender fluidity has become a hot topic of discussion within streetwear recently, especially with hip-hop figure Young Thug admitting to a preference towards women’s clothing. Do you think this has affected how people are beginning to approach streetwear labels and blurring the line of what’s “for men” and what’s “for women”? This circles back to what I mentioned earlier. It’s definitely changed the game and has pushed me to think of new ways to claim my stake in this new generation of streetwear. We offer unisex styles within our brand and we always have BUT at the end of the day, the roots and DNA of HLZBLZ is very female. So as a businessperson, I’m already in the works of incubating new projects that fit within the unisex realm.

how much would the consumer want pay for it? 

Burberry has certainly gotten the ball rolling, and taken together with the fact that fashion’s most famed creative directors are growing tired of the sped-up cycle and the resulting lack of creative freedom they are able to exercise, this is likely just the beginning of a larger revamp of the industry and its schedule. Fashion consumers (particularly those of the millennial and Gen Z breed) are only human and as a result, they desire instant gratification, which is something that until very recently, only fast fashion retailers were providing. It seems time that the fashion industry catches up in order to make the most of their collections and the often-extravagant runway productions that come right along with them.

Whether it’s street or not, you can get a good read on most people based on how they put things together. But I feel like there’s a big disconnect right now among a lot of brands. People aren’t necessarily sticking true to who they are or creating a part of themselves that tells a story. Too many are producing based on what they think is gonna sell. Think of this analogy: fashion is a just word in the dictionary, and it’s about how you put words together to tell your story. We all have access to all of these words, yet we can all write different stories that’s individualised to a person. If someone continues designing bomber jackets, that’s a part of who they are, but we’re lacking a lot of individuality – you don’t have to change your whole look to accommodate someone else’s. There’s been this resurgence of the ‘90s, ‘80s, then ‘90s — it goes through a cycle and depends on how people mash it together. Some stuff looks great, and some stuff I just don’t get at all. Which is fine. It’s not for me to get.
