A movement towards handmade, one-of-a-kind, or custom clothes and accessories taps into how much Gen Z values uniqueness, sustainability, and being the first to discover something new online. What’s more, as talented non-white designers continue to shake up the homogeneity of the fashion industry, social media and peer-to-peer selling platforms like Depop give extra power to the small, independent designer. This has created a new path forward for young designers to follow, skipping over the need for acceptance from a major retailer to reach a major audience. Designers like Saudia Islam of JBD Apparel, who works out of a studio in her native Philadelphia rather than in a major fashion city like New York or LA, are able to leverage social media to generate massive attention and even start new trends – particularly with the help of stars like Dua Lipa and Kim Kardashian wearing their clothes.
