Dirty Pineapple’s Gender-Fluid Collection Champions For Inclusivity At NYFW

Dirty Pineapple established itself as a messenger of forward-thinking at Spring Studios during New York Fashion Week (NYFW) with their soon-to-release ‘The New Street’ collection.

The brand founded by Elsa Zai and Nellie Wang not only empowered its loyalist through their Spring/Summer 2020 message but also, with inclusivity.

The ‘New Street’ echoed the designs of their signature ‘aftersex’ button-down shirts, ‘checkerboards insomnia suitpants,’ and their ‘easy shirt jackets.’ Alongside, a strobing backdrop, and Doc Martens’ sporting-models — Dirty Pineapple took their gender-fluid pieces to the next level at their latest presentation.
