'I question how far have we actually progressed in the fight for social justice from the 1950s to today. In my collection I take you through a time line of where we were as a nation, where we are as a nation, and my hope for where we are headed.'
Whereas some designers discover and fall in love with fashion, 23-year-old designer Briana Danyele says that for her it wasn’t really a choice. “It was just going to be something that I was a part of because it was a part of me,” the recentgrad tells me over the phone. Danyele not only knew at an early age that she wanted to be a designer, but she also wanted to make clothes that made people feel something beyond the tangible, whether that’s confidence or the need to take action.
With her most recent collection, “The Illusion of Progress,” that feeling is action, or rather a look at what can happen as a result of inaction. The 18-piece collection, which she showed in May as apart of SCAD’s spring fashion graduate show, highlights what she describes as “the cyclical struggle we have created with systemic racism.” “I question how far have we actually progressed in the fight for social justice from the 1950s to today,” Danyele tells.
She does this without sacrificing her design prowess. There’s a heavy focus on embroidery: sleeves embossed with Maya Angelou’s words, “Still I Rise,” a pair of pants that say “No Justice,” and another that includes words from the Declaration of Independence. Then there’s a silk-tulle dress with “I Am Human” embroidered in the center, worn on top of a tailored shirtdress.
