TBT Moment…which for us was an epic and inspiring experience…
Autism - Challenges with social skills...some with repetitive behaviors, speech and non-verbal communication...but with loving persistence and patience...an individual can go beyond this mental barrier and carry on social interaction...and so much more in life!
As a Team... Geoffrey Lamont ...designer for Zooonek Urban Edge clothing line...participated in Raw Artist/Arise Show Platform in BROOKLYN NY! He debuted a portion of his Fall collection and was received well!
We introduced a “new” model to the platform... Madria...America’s first runway model with Autism to WALK in RAW Brooklyn Bazaar Show: ARISE!! Madria is the new face of Zooonek! Madria was received with so much love...it warmed our hearts!!!
“Individuals with Autism do not have the option to be free within their minds. So sometimes they gravitate towards music, art, fashion or even exercise to release that freedom they need to express. One thing I see which can relate to my Zooonek line is that my expression with my pieces speak to animals and their natural habitat to run free...I create my pieces outside of the box...as the animals run free within their habitat...” Geoffrey Owens/Zooonek
Thanks to the entire Team...models...Designer Geoff...we had a blast...fun...amazing evening...thank you Father for making it all possible!!
