Maxine Waters Merch Hits the Fashion Week Runway
Yahoo ^ | 7/10/18 | Nerisha Penrose

The interweaving of political/social references and luxe streetwear designs has become the touchstone of Mexican-American designer Willy Chavarria's fashion shows.

For his Fall/Winter 2018 show in February, black and brown models walked down the runway with pained expressions and tears on their faces, possibly symbolizing the effect of police brutality, violence, and other tragedies plaguing minorities.

This season, Willy Chavarria debuted his new soccer-inspired collaboration with sportswear brand Hummel. The political references were still there, including a sweatshirt with the word "American" flipped upside down, another sweatshirt flipped the American flag, and then there was Maxine Waters.

No, not in the flesh but Chavarria paid tribute to the congresswoman by emblazoning a portrait of her on a sleeveless black shirt with the words "Fighter" written above.

“walked down the runway with pained expressions and tears on their faces, possibly symbolizing the effect of police brutality, violence, and other tragedies plaguing minorities.”

Or maybe they didn’t get enough fiber in their diet?

It’s our day off from Webelos camp. Thursday through Sunday are expected to be a little cooler: 90-ish, instead of 96.

I heard that when the Reginald Denny thugs got out of prison she threw them a party. Can anyone confirm?

You are so right!

If the temperatures are that low this weekend I may find I can venture outdoors for the morning. Might even find time to visit a swimming pool. It’s hot when it’s too hot to go swimming and been to hot nearly all summer to go swimming. Told better half the other day we should go over to Great Wolf for a dip but heat is keeping us in. My poor dog has been talking about biting me if I take him outside but I told him he would have to use the toilet. He said he worried about being flushed so I open the door he goes out for business and he whines when he comes back to gain entry. I’m going to have to keep it quiet if Great Wolf is in better half’s and my future or our dog will want to go too. I would take him but I’m afraid he wouldn’t behave himself. Probably would get us thrown out. If only I could get him toilet trained. He’d poop in the water I know he would

It’s supposed to look like principled determination, I guess, but I see narcissistic outrage.

She doesn't really know anything about "principled" anything.

She's just an ugly hater, not an advocate for the poor ........ living in a $4.5 million home.

She's disgusting.
