Tunnel-less Vision by Satchel Smith
“Tunnel-less Vision” is a menswear collection inspired by the intersection of black and queer culture and activism throughout the 70’s and 80’s. Although these communities weren't necessarily intertwined, this collection takes both aspects to create a sophisticated yet dramatic vibe. Style within the Black Panther Party was characterized by edge and chicness, emphasizing monochromatic palettes, sophistication, and sleekness. Fashion within the ballroom community revolves around unique silhouettes and gender-bending aesthetics, playing with masculinity and femininity. The customer for this collection looks to make a statement with their style, bridging the gap between masculine and feminine clothing. The collection utilizes hard and soft textures and fabrics to emphasize the mixture of aesthetics relating to the overall theme.
