Denim Tears’ Cotton Wreath Is Sizing Up NYC
The collection showcases Denim Tears’ iconic items – hoodies, sweatpants, and sweatshorts – reimagined with bold, oversized fits and patterns. These pieces are dyed in shades of black, grey, and purple, and each one proudly displays the brand’s symbol, the “Cotton Wreath,” which signifies the struggles of Black people in the cotton trade, both historically and in modern America. This is a part of Emory’s broader mission to narrate the stories of the African diaspora through fashion.
