BUTCH FEMME - CFDA FUTURE OF FASHION

Megan Picurro is a recent graduate of Parsons MPS in Fashion Management program. As a resilient, creative, endlessly curious queer human who has overcome great challenges, Picurro embeds her beliefs in both her design and business ethos.   Currently, she is developing her own line of “cosmetics” for the queer consumer. 

FASHION MANIFESTO  

Currently the LGBTIQA+ community is being marketed to as one segment when really, we are many segments. My goal is to create a stronger community for queer women, lesbians, transmen, transmasculine and non-binary people and create brands and spaces that reflect our values. We wear cosmetics but don’t necessarily identify with beauty. We want clean products including packaging – no more virgin plastic. We are not straight women; we are not gay men. We are different.
