Fashion Designers have started to express their political beliefs throughout catwalks and collections. Angela Missoni showed her support and passion for women’s rights by taking inspiration from the ‘pink pussy hats’ worn at the women’s rights march in Washington. As designers have a large following and platform to publicise their political views, it is important for them to design clothing with bold political statements which people can relate to as it draws attention to the issues, inspires trends and allows people to powerful express themselves through clothing.
