As a fashion editor, I’m endlessly inspired by small fashion brands that I look to for new ideas and fresh takes on style. Young and independent designers truly keep me thinking forward by constantly evolving what’s coming next in fashion—providing me with moments of creativity and ways to reimagine my personal style.
Since many small businesses are going through hard times right now, I think it’s more important than ever to rally around them and lend our support, and it’s been wonderful to know others feel the same way. I’ve had a number of people reaching out to me, asking how they can help keep smaller fashion businesses afloat during these tough times, so I’m putting my ideas in one place. Ahead, I’m sharing small fashion brands you can support right now and the ways many of them are already giving back.
