I spoke with Jordan and Madison, they are two fashion designers who operate a Portland, Maine fashion store called Loquat Shop. Loquat is a store designed to uplift and empower marginalized voices. The duo has made strides to share their values in being culturally aware and campaign driven by marrying activism and fashion together. As of recent, Loquat has created masks in the midst of the COVID 19 pandemic, created fashion campaigns for accessible menstrual products, and collaborated with local artists to create tote bags. You can learn more about the day to day of Madison and Jordan's journey and their views on challenging the status quo of fashion and uplifting marginalized voices in today's episode of Dreams Not Memes.
