charlotte.gush / Andreja Pejic, Argentina, gender, identity, trans, transgender /

Transsexual, transgender, transvestite – still a largely misunderstood world. Last month the stunning and too often blithely described “androgynous model” Andrej Pejic re-introduced herself as Andreja, following her gender transition surgery.

Oct 11, 2014 / Blog

charlotte.gush / International Day of the Girl /

The power of Day of the Girl lies in the forum opened up, the space created and the dialogues encouraged. It’s a way of seeing the issues women face as both individual problems and interlinked areas, some global and others local.

It is easy to focus on the negatives and list the designers who used no black models, no asian models. But we want to celebrate the designers who did something more interesting, who showed us their vision of #DiversityNOW at London Fashion Week SS15

charlotte.gush / Bare reality /

Bazoomas, love humps, knockers or jugs? A couple of melons or pair of Georgie Bests perhaps? We have so many terms for breasts yet the common insecurities so many women feel towards their own have remained largely unspoken.

Self esteem: Workers and wearers are connected

Self esteem: Workers and wearers are connected

If we can release western women from the belief that they need cheap, fast fashion to anaesthetise the learned dissatisfaction even disgust they feel about their bodies and nurture them towards psychological health, we can encourage recognition that slow, fair trade fashion is better for everyone… especially the women of Bangladesh.
