LONDON, United Kingdom — As the fashion industry embarks on a month-long circuit of women's shows amidst growing uncertainty and a dangerous narrative peddling division, BoF invites you, the global fashion community, to join the #TiedTogether movement and make a clear statement in support of solidarity, human unity and inclusiveness.

In fashion, visuals often speak louder than words. So join together this Fashion Month to make a simple and singular visual statement: wear a white bandana as a sign to the world that you believe in the common bonds of humankind — regardless of race, sexuality, gender or religion.

Starting today at the Tommy Hilfiger show in Los Angeles, the white bandana will be adopted by designers and creative directors and integrated into their fashion shows; worn by press, celebrity guests and digital influencers attending the shows; and embraced by fans and followers of fashion around the world, as the next cycle of fashion weeks weaves its way from New York to London to Milan and Paris.

Here's how you can get involved:

EVERYONE:

Tie a white bandana around your wrist, neck, head or handbag
Upload an image of your bandana to social media
Tag someone to show you are #TiedTogether, as friends, family, neighbours and humans
Register your support on the #tiedtogether website

INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS:

For designers: incorporate white bandanas in your fashion shows or wear a white bandana in your final bow
For models: wear white bandanas to castings and between shows
For street style photographers: shoot people wearing white bandanas
For editors: include images of white bandanas in your round-ups and fashion week coverage
Please also consider donating to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and UNHCR, the UN's Refugee agency.

If you'd like to find out more about #tiedtogether and discuss ways of participating in this movement, please visit the #tiedtogether website or email [email protected].

What is the #tiedtogether movement?

While executives from other prominent industries around the world raised their voices in response to current world developments, the fashion industry has remained silent. In light of the current uncertainties and turmoil around the world, The Business of Fashion invites the fashion industry to stand together and make a clear statement of solidarity, unity and inclusiveness. This is not a political statement, it is a positive statement in support of humanity during a time of turmoil and fear in many nations around the world. We aim to start a global movement within the fashion industry to demonstrate the power of unity and inclusivity, and encourage fashion enthusiasts and people outside the industry to join.
How can you get involved?

The Business of Fashion invites all of its readers, partners and supporters to unite by making a singular visual statement: wear a white bandana as a sign to the world that we believe in unity and inclusivity for all humankind.

i know!

at least bof is trying though...
they wrote an article and called out the lack of public outcry from the fashion community regarding the current regime's agenda in the US...

saddest part is that most designers and attendees cannot even be bothered to do this tiny thing...

this is why i retired from this pos business...
they go to their retreats, do yoga and they "meditate" and spout all of this pseudo-philosophy, but when it comes time to act...
they find a nice rock and climb right under it...

bunch o' bs, imo...
pffft...

:rolleyes:
