Arts
The sister duo behind Instagram's @nycxclothes, Shelcy and Christy, walk us through their inspiring journey of immigrating from Haiti to cultivating a community in NYC. These women discuss how diversity in the fashion industry has transitioned from a buzzword to redefining a lifestyle. We learn how we the consumers, can do our part to enforce change and utilize the platforms we have. Our voices have so much weight, and we're in an era where silence is unacceptable. Influencers, activists, and organizers; this team is making waves in the social media world and I'm here to support every step of the way! Find Shelcy and Christy on Instagram @nycxclothes.
