The mud pit was meant to serve as a runway, with the models representing "anti-heroines," according to Velez, per WWD.
"We have lost touch with our gift and responsibility to paint a truthful and beautiful picture of our times," Velez said in her manifesto, according to WWD. "It feels to me like the sanitization and unilateralization of womanhood in popular culture today leaves no room for the nuance and multiplicity we deserve as architects of labyrinthine interior lives," the 28-year-old rising fashion star concluded.
The Parsons School of Design graduate called her show a "ritualistic catharsis to the coddling, histrionic, and moralistic ills of oversocialization," and said the show was a response to a "climate of post-progressivism where resistance to a monolithic cultural paradigm is intensifying," Vogue reported.
This response prompted Vogue to call her "post-woke," noting a male attendee of the show said, "it kinda turned me on."

so the nonsensicality and word soup of post-modern art has finally reached fashion shows?
to me, the whole stunt reeks of over-exaggerated pretentiousness.
I mean, I was always under the impression that that was what most fashion shows were at that level. Keep in mind, some of these designers are still trying to sell you on a 200.00 shirt

Yes. The text is meaningless clap-trap. It's pretend PM critical theory jargon using a few repurposed buzz words.
They were probably afraid of appearing too frivolous and added some ketchup. When we see such debasement (as WAM frequently is) we do get the idea what's going on. You can resort to anarchy and destruction as a comment only so many times I guess.

Yeah, this does feel a bit more pretentious than most. Almost as if they're trying to be smarter than they really are. Like, it's mud wrestling folks. No need to try to tramp stamp a label on it.
