The fashion designers have teamed up with the AAPI Victory Fund for a first-of-its-kind fashion and politics collaboration to encourage Asian Americans to vote.
"It’s just going to be such a beautiful evening, and there’s never been anything like this, even close, for our community," AAPI Victory Fund President and CEO Brad Jenkins tells."Our community is never center in this way. And honestly our ability to do this really does rest in us working with folks like Prabal and Phillip, because we can’t just be preaching to the choir, we have to be reaching Asian American voters in communities that love all of these guys.
"I remember in the beginning of starting out in fashion, everyone told you, 'Let your clothes speak for themselves,' but fast forward to today, it is important that your audience knows what you stand for and what you are willing to speak for and against," says Lim, who recently launched a collaboration with Panda Express to raise awareness about food insecurity within the AAPI community, and to celebrate the role of food and family in Chinese culture.
He insists that while he and Gurung are speaking for the AAPI community they are part of, they feel that every U.S. minority is part of the same family, and we all need each other to ensure we are listened to, represented, and respected in the long run.
