welcome to detroit—it’s been waiting for you!
I was talking to some new friends last night about how special this project has been: I get to bear witness to people’s best days, to document their best dresses, and to see firsthand their fearless determination to make it to these shows. There’s so much hard work and camaraderie and joy that lead into this spaces and I get to be a fly on the wall for all this beauty. Every time, both in photographing these days and in writing about them, I tear up because this is so special. It’s the intersection of fashion, music, community—all my favorite things—and I could do this forever. Thank you so much for trusting me with your faces, you stories, your best days.
