Mexican-born designer has very strong message for Donald Trump at New York Fashion Week
Fashion and politics might not seem like an obvious pairing, but the two were inextricable at New York Fashion Week. On the runway at LRS's NYFW show, one designer had a very clear message for Donald Trump and his plan to build a border wall.
"Fuck your wall," read the message emblazoned on the back of a model's underwear.
The fashion label's designer Luis Raul Solis was born in Mexico, raised in Los Angeles and now lives in New York City. Donald Trump's promise to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border will cost an estimated $21.6 billion, according to a U.S. Department of Homeland Security report.
Brings a whole new meaning to the words "fashion statement".
