Looting Was Encouraged at the Pyer Moss 10-Year Anniversary Sale
Kerby Jean-Raymond knows how to send a political message. The Haitian-American designer of Pyer Moss regularly takes cues from his revolutionary roots in order to disrupt the world around him. In 2016, his spring menswear line called attention to police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. Three years later, his collection shown at Brooklyn’s Kings Theater celebrated Black people like Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and their contributions to pop culture. Earlier this week, in celebration of Pyer Moss’ 10-year anniversary, Jean-Raymond organized a “Loot-Out” sale event that left the fashion set buzzing.
