This week Lisa Daftari, Fox News contributor, shed light on a growing fashion movement in her feature: Women of Iran defy mullahs by embracing western fashions. Showing political dissent by violating the dress code, people who now have access to social media, are defying the powers that be. According to journalist and political activist Mansoureh Nasserchian, “Social media gave the courage to the new generation to break taboos and be open about political and social issues.”
It is another reminder of the important role that fashion plays in our lives and why the way one dresses is significant. In this week’s podcast I share this story of global self expression.
