The Elephant in the Room is more than just a clothing line; it's a movement that infuses each hand designed garment with positivity and inspiration, transforming fashion into a catalyst for meaningful conversation. Wearing our apparel encourages social empathy through healthy dialogue which helps bridge gaps between people who may have never met, only to find out we are all more alike than different revealing our shared humanity beyond race, religion, or gender.

Why did you apply for Project Pop-Up?
