FASHUN TWEEK! began yesterday at Alt Space in Bushwick and will feature one independent designer every evening until Friday. Alt Space is the official headquarters of music and culture blog/zine Alt Citizen and also functions as a gallery and concept store. Produced by Stylist/Art Director Philip Gomez, FASHUN TWEEK! kicked off its first night with fashion designer Jahnkoy Maria. The event consisted of a beautiful evening outdoor fashion presentation along with music and dance performances. Inside the space the walls were lined with uplifting text urging humanity to unite, help, and love each other to convey the message Jahnkoy’s fashion seeks to represent.
