It’s a paradox meant to remind us that urban doesn’t mean that you are trapped by your environment or that those who live in urban settings have less joy, or less freedom than those do not. The fashions are a contrast of urban with a beachy flair. Inspired by African-American artist Faith Ringgold’s book of the same name, Tar Beach fashion embodies fun summer moments in an urban setting. It’s the feeling invoked by Tar Beach, our cover editorial this month. You are as much a part of this world of sound and sky, of love and laughter. The sounds of the city surround you: traffic, upbeat music from a nearby restaurant, the laughter of friends and family as you trade stories of both the far-fetched and the familiar. You sit outside on a rooftop patio, a cool drink in hand.
