“It is exhilarating to be in person and to be with all of you. And how great is it that we are all here together in person,” said Steve Lamar, president and CEO of the American Apparel Manufacturers Association. “There’s no question that the industry we look at now is very different than the one we supported when we were last gathered in this room. Together, we are on a path of sustainable change.
Diggs, president of the CFDA, which is celebrating its 60th year, said that through the CFDA Scholarship Fund, more than $2.7 million has been awarded through 320-plus scholarships for tuition and living expenses between 1996 and 2021. For 2022, the CFDA Scholarship Fund will distribute $500,000 in scholarship awards to students. The funds raised at the American Image Awards will support the CFDA’s educational and social impact initiatives.
Gurung said he loves the industry because it has the power to change how we see each other. “For me personally, “It’s an industry where anyone who looks like me or has any resemblance to any of my friends from the marginalized and minority BIPOC community is still a quota, a box to tick, a decorative display for the front of the house to let the culture and world know that the industry is ‘woke’ while the board room and the decision-making tables remain blindingly white,” Gurung said.
