The Fabric of Fashion, Global Capital, Republic & Our Body Collective.

March 26, 2021

Eve Eurydice speaks with fashion designer Rene Ruiz, Miami’s dressermaker to the stars, winner of an Emmy for hosting MDC-TV's Fashion Forward documentary series. We discuss Name Brands & Globalization of the Craft, the Value of the Body to counterbalance the Business of the Mind, how Fashion connects the Collective Human Body to the Individual needs and aesthetic expressions. We discuss whether Fashion enslaves & objectifies people. We find the alternative of us all looking alike is so frightening that we can only associate it w tyranny, dictatorship, terror. We criticize Slavej Zizek who is predicting ‘the end of fashion’ & that fashion will become utilitarian. Eve says ‘fashion is the way in which culture daily touches the body intimately.’ Eve believes that ‘fashion is a fun way to show how our identity changes all the time.’ Covid-19 reminded us that We are One Collective Body.
