All their clothes fall below $300.
Emma Zack,founder of Berriez, spoke to Bustle about the moment and why it was so important.
ModelJordan Underwoodcelebrated Zack’s accomplishment with the Berriez show on Instagram after walking as the vice ‘Stoner Sam.’

However, what frustrates me is that this criticism exists without any modeling of what we want to see.
Underwood went on to say that talking about the problem isnt enough.

“Just do it,” is the advice she has for designers.
I just want the same clothes.

All of that wrapped into who’s getting hired to walk these runways.
Let’s dismantle all of that.
Stop making excuses and just do it."
