American Watchdogs - our comic book about the import of inspectors general to a healthy democracy - took to the runway last night to kick off fashion week, highlight local artists, and emphasize collaborative politics. I wore a favorite bespoke blazer by GINA Bespoke that I had gotten stains on, so TATTOO’D CLOTH | Brooklyn Chainstitch beautifully covered them with embroidery based on the gorgeous illustrations by 💌 Re: Emily Ree in the comic book we are distributing to schools across New York State this year of America 250.
The incredible hand embroidery by TATTOO’D CLOTH | Brooklyn TATTOO’D CLOTH | Brooklyn Chainstitch “cape” on the back of my blazer, which went from stained and unwearable to being a collector’s item!
