Amy Odell’s feature on The Cut shows the politics of fashion:

Sonia Rykiel‘s spring 2009 collection included sweaters that read “I have a dream” and “Obama.” Jean-Charles de Castelbajac put Barack’s grinning face on a dress paired with gloves that read “yes” and “no” — probably his way of saying “rock the vote.”

For more check out The Cut on NY Mag. Gotta love it… or maybe you don’t? I’d love to hear your thoughts :-).
