BFC Fashion Fund and Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient Bianca Saunders is releasing a zine in collaboration with Joshua Woods, shot in New York. Bianca worked with stylist Matt Holmes, and writer/model, Jessica Cole.

The zine We Are One Of The Same explores themes of identity, gender, and community, a concept central to Bianca’s approach to design.

Jess Cole, We Are One Of The Same, writes, “We established a common-ground through our shared realities of blackness, whilst drawing out the distinct difference in our lived experiences as black peoples’ in the UK and US. Liberating ourselves from the confines of corporate and client interference, the project is a fusion of freed and multi-disciplinary expressions. This zine is an art-come-poetry-come-fashion piece...We are one of the same moment, yet it is only through our difference in perspective, that we can keep this moment moving forward.” 

Bianca will be hosting a panel in collaboration with SHOWstudio, titled The Collaboration Worldview, reflecting upon the importance of creative collaboration in a rapidly changing industry, co-hosted with Jess Cole and Joshua Woods.

We Are One Of The Same is available to buy from 12 June at biancasaunders.com.

The Collaboration Worldview is live on SHOWstudio.com at 11.30am, 13 June.
