LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

How She Wears It is a collection of

currents and patterns happening organically and subconsciously through the way women dress today. None of these women knew someone was out looking for an underlying theme to the way she and all of these strangers dressed that morning, they just did it. The beauty lies in the interconnectivity that exists between all of them. Fashions trends flow horizontally, downward, upward and every way possible. My hope is merely to catalog and frame these trends. Take, enjoy, dissect, critic, and develop each one as an individual. De gustibus non est disputandum. There is no disputing in taste.

Best,

AB
