What to wear after an apocalypse in NYC?
Maybe I’m watching too much Walking Dead and post apocalyptic tales, but I can’t help to think about what people are wearing as they’re fighting off zombies and/or starting new civilizations in the aftermath of the downfall of society.
I’ve noticed that there’s always a lack of color and they always look like they’re ready to kick some butt or sit down for brunch at a casual downtown bistro. I guess that all came to me when I scouted out the run down Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn for my shoot with the talented photographer, Jessica Weiser.
There’s something so beautiful in the ruins of Gowanus made it the perfect backdrop for working with all local NYC designers, who use this great city as their inspiration and most of which I found through the wonderful local resource, The Fashion Center BID (Thanks Ryan!).
By the way, if you don’t know about The Fashion Center, it’s a great resource to call when you’re looking for anything in fashion in NYC like sample sales!
What would you wear in a post-apocalyptic world?
These photos are fantastic and the style of each, amazing. I love those black and white pants and that black and white dress too. But the thing about me is that I’m a very modest person so I would probably just wear a comfortable plain shirt with jeans and maybe boots or sneakers.
I’m with you Nusrat…I’m a jeans and a tee girl myself but wouldn’t it be fun if the post-apocalyptic world looked like this?
