South Africa, Johannesburg, Female, 24 and under

It is a bit scary to be a young woman in design. Despite the fashion industry being “female” dominated, our male counterparts are still mores celebrated and respected as leaders in the field. Patriarchal thinking shows up in all areas of society- including design. With what I said, I think being aware of gender differences will go a long way in being the right kind of change to the industry.
