While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running.
From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 I'm waiting for good ideas on how to continue to #mend the skirt. In the meantime, I carry on Daughter's eternal socks. Sometimes I suspect she use them on sandpaper. 😅 #visiblemending #lovesclotheslast

🇮🇹 Aspetto buone idee su come continuare a #rammendare la gonna. Nel frattempo porto avanti gli eterni calzini di Figlia. Ogni tanto ho il sospetto che li usi sulla carta vetrata. 😅 #visiblemending #lovesclotheslast
Hope they’ll make some kind of video presentation for those of us overseas. Love the focus of this exhibit:
🟣 “…an intimate display of fashion garments that have been worn, altered and reused – with a focus on wear, repair and craftsmanship.”
