Refugees Urgently Need More Designer Gear
Major brands are panicking
Francois Pleindemerde has hit out against government agencies and NGOs worldwide at their lack of urgency around providing basic branded fashions for refugees. Pleindemerde is a spokesthem for the Society of Haute Couture for International Travellers (SCHIT). "What kind of societies have we become when we allow our oppressed brothers and sisters walk around in basic footwear and non-branded clothes. Refugees are isolated enough without having to look like they're underprivileged. We are still so far removed from achieving the kind of utopia that we simply must reach if we are to survive as a species. On top of that major brands are just not shifting enough gear, and there are fears that they may have to eliminate many of their workforces in South East Asia who work day and night to provide us with new and exciting lines of clothing. Branded fashions are an integral part of what makes our society so vibrant and progressive. They provide us with the kind of joy and fulfilment that simply no-one else can.
The fashion industry has shown so much compassion towards refugees.
The fashion industry has shown so much compassion towards refugees. Countless articles in journals, blogs and documentaries are a testament to just how obsessed we are with this topic, but people are not paying enough attention. We need to ramp up our lobbying of the UN to devote billions more in resources: One of our major campaigns centres around placing billboards everywhere illustrating what a difference fashion makes in the life of someone who has sacrificed everything to get on a jetplane to another side of the world not knowing what they will have to wear when they get there. It's horrifying. Many organisations are on board with our efforts:
UNHCR, and even
How could all these fine organisations be so callously ignored? To be honest some days it's hard to even keep going. You begin to ask yourself why you do what you do."
Pleindemerde has to cut the interview short and can barely finish xer Kentucky Derby Mint Julep so has to be shepherded away by xer entourage of personal attendants. It was the kind of harrowing scene that could alter one's perception of humanity.

it's like i've always said, 'clothes make the man if the common man would just wear what their corporate overlords told them to wear'. is it too much to ask that all peasants be mandated to wear branded clothing and accessories. if we can mandate vaccines then we can surely mandate branded clothing.
