Collina Strada Spring, Summer 2021 Change Is Cute

This digital show was made amongst a community of creatives. In this moment of global precarity, the importance of solidarity has never been clearer; in the absence of systems that can hold us, we are forced to hold ourselves. We brought together a network of collaboratorslongtime coconspirators and new friends aliketo construct a new virtual world of inclusiveness and joy. Using floral illustrations from SeanKierre Lyons, whose By Any Means Necessary series intertwines Black folklore minstrel and personal experiences, and the multimedia work of Alicia Mersy, an artist who specializes in political resistance video, Taymour has created a digital fashion experience rooted in her core values of social activism. Models are seen in a utopian virtual world of tiedyed cornfields, sprouting carrots, floating gardens and a Collinaprint rainbow waterfall. Spring Summer 2021 will be a series of looks reworked from classic Collina styles in fresh prints and sustainable fabrics. Have a farmtastic day
