Official Official Us World Junior Champions Trey Augustine & Isaac Howard Michigan State T-shirt, hoodie, tank top, longsleeve

You’ve been a supporter of many burgeoning fashion creatives over the years, like Maximilian at his namesake label and Ferragamo, and Telfar, Luar, and Kingsley, who you wore at one of your recent shows. How important is it for you to support these designers through your performances and your work? It’s a really big deal, and it felt very natural. When I started to make the music that I made, I met a bunch of people who existed in an informal collective. That’s how I would describe it, because it was more close-knit than, say, hanging out sometimes because we make stuff. We were all friends and it’s a tight-knit hang, and everybody happens to be killing it. One of my first big gigs was opening for Solange at Webster Hall. It was two dates a week apart. For the first show, I wore this Telfar sweatshirt that had two pieces: one piece around the waist with a big hole in the middle, and then a top piece. I was just looking at innovative, cool-looking clothes that my friend made, and he was saving me. And then the next week, it was Hood By Air. I remember it was an obscenely long-sleeved white crop top—the sleeves went to my knees—and it was perfect because I was grabbing the mic over the sleeve. Support marginalized designers and creatives is really important to me.

And when one of you experiences success, it’s not just one of you—you’re bringing everybody with you. Period, exactly. That’s how it works. It’s surreal, very surreal…it’s surreal when I look around and I’m constantly inspired by my peers. I feel rejuvenated and I experience so much renewal around my fellow creatives. So, it’s paramount for finding that drive to keep going. COS is giving chic for the people. I can get behind that. There are so many people that exist in that space where it’s like, I want something nice, I want it to feel chic.” It’s basics that just hit. It’s cut perfectly. It does the thing that it needs to do. I think it’s really incredible. It’s always been incredible design, just at a base level, like, this is a great jacket. Oh man, that is a really good question! Walking down the steps at the Met Gala in sparkling Paco Rabanne. That was a moment. The eye makeup that Raisa Flowers went crazy on. There’s this one Dries pajamas look that I did—it was September 2018, so I guess spring/summer 2019, with the the white Tabis, and the hair up and that Y/Project earring. Now that I’ve entered my wig era, it means there’s another set of characters. There’s a little girl inside me that low-key can’t believe that I am making imagery like the things I grew up looking at. It feels surreal.
