Raf Simons

Raf Simons Autumn/Winter collection was very classic, basic, elegant and yet chic all at once. "Raf Simons is a god among New York menswear" I do want to state that he was very particular style. I noticed that he was also saying a message for all youths, to speak up. With that being said, I always loved the idea of artist, designers, public figures, etc speaking up through songs, paintings, wall art, poems, and in this case...fashion! Simons did say that, " when Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States. While we were working on it, something happened that you would not even imagine. You can only speak up, I think, and bring a kind of energy and things that stand against it. I think that’s my challenge now.” This is very inspiring in my opinion and I think more designers should add diction or any type of message into their collections, designs, etc. Overall I love the way he played with satin materials, duct tape, and more.
