/CW INTERN SKY ABNER | 21 Things I Learned at Milwaukee Fashion Week from a Fashion Perspective

A WORD FROM OUR INTERN SKY:

@mkefashionweek was such a fun experience to be apart of! I enjoyed seeing all the shows and doing interviews for @copywritemag

To all the wonderful people that I interviewed thank you so much for being apart of my short film. I wanted to add everybody but it would have been a movie.

My love for fashion started when I was a kid. It was something passed down to me from both of my parents. My mom had a closet I would raid any chance I could get, which I still like to do to  this day. My dad collected ties, more than 500 of them, and he loved nothing more than putting on a sharp suit. Between the two of them, I grew up surrounded by style. 

I spent hours playing dress-up games, imagining the kind of spaces where fashion was not just  personal but celebrated. Living in Milwaukee, I always wished for a place where people like me, people who loved fashion in all its forms, had a community where that love could be shared  freely. 

Walking into Milwaukee Fashion Week, I realized that dream had found its home. For three days, I watched the city’s fashion community come alive. Designers, models, stylists,  photographers and volunteers all wove together into something bigger than a show. 

This year, the energy filled three different venues: the Milwaukee Public Museum, City Hall and  the Rivulet. Each space had its own story, from high-fashion archive pieces to the blueprint of streetwear and forms and figures. President Jeffrey McAlister called it “the reimagined, renewed and redefined Milwaukee Fashion Week,” and standing there in the middle of it all, I understood exactly what he meant. 

On the runway, the designs did more than turn heads; they told stories. Silversärk brought the  heat with daring, dramatic pieces that were impossible to forget, while Sam Graham Avant  Garde added sophistication, with looks so fly they made me double-take. Some pieces carried a retro flair that pulled me back to the 70s, a time I wasn’t born but still felt connected to through  his clothing. Then, during streetwear night came Arturo Velasco, whose work blended his culture  and love for Chihuahua, Mexico, transforming them into designs rooted in identity and storytelling. Fashion here was not just about fabric. It was about the designer’s voice, memory, and creativity. 

The models brought their own kind of magic. Some had known they wanted to walk the runway  since they were a kid, while others found their way here through friendship and community.  They reminded me that confidence matters as much as couture. The runway can be a family, a  place where people grow together and support one another. 

The backstage process was a world of its own, buzzing with urgency, laughter and the constant warmth of curling irons. Student and professional hair and makeup artists moved with precision, 

transforming models in minutes. Every detail, from beat faces to sculpted hair, mattered.  Watching it unfold felt like seeing another kind of art form, one that rarely comes alive in front  of the cameras. 

And speaking of cameras, the photographers were everywhere, capturing angles and moments that told their own story. Volunteers kept things running smoothly, helping people to their seats, making everyone feel welcome. 

Looking back at my great experience, I walked away with 21 notes from the past 3 nights: 

1. The city’s fashion scene is thriving and growing. 

2. Milwaukee Fashion Week has come a long way. 

3. Every venue told a story. 

4. The designer’s couture amazed me. 

5. Designers proved fashion can carry culture. 

6. Models reminded me that the runway is a family and that confidence matters.  7. Backstage is chaos and inspiration.  

8. Hairstylists push limits.  

9. Makeup turns faces into art.  

10. Photographers make moments last.  

11. Volunteers keep everything moving.  

12. The hosts feel the crowd and the room with energy. 

13. The community is inclusive and very kind. 

14. Everyone has a real love for fashion. 

15. Designers draw inspiration from everywhere.  

16. The runway is about storytelling.  

17. Every detail counts.  

18. Fashion in Milwaukee is about connection.  

19. Organizers want national recognition.  

20. Fashion shows are a celebration. 

21. And at the heart of it all, Milwaukee Fashion Week is about style, creativity and  community! 

As Julie Ann Maday, on the finance committee board, told me, “I want Milwaukee Fashion  Week on the map like Chicago, New York, or Paris. We have the designers, we have the talent,  we just need to keep building.” 

And after three nights of being in the middle of it all, I have the highest hopes for the future of  Milwaukee Fashion Week as well.

PRE-ORDER YOUR COPY OF COPYWRITE MAGAZINE ISSUE 22 | THE VISION

“The record will not be unwritten . . . not this time.”

-FOR THE LAST TIME-

In this issue, we explore Vision. From our professional practice, we use vision as a tool to navigate the aesthetic world, playing with the complexities of that faculty. “What does it feel like to have the ability to think about the future, plan for unrealized opportunities, or see alternative ways to approach what is? For some, this appears as clairvoyant. CopyWrite itself was born from envisioning a conduit that supported the local community through creative endeavors. But the gift of vision is not an isolated ability. It manifests itself in so many others forging innovation, redefining ingenuity, and has produced hope by seeing beyond “states of matter”, taking paths less travelled [& others plunging head-first into the unknown].

Introducing Muta'aliah: The Artist Whose Love for Art Has Sparked the Truth About Healing

PHOTO ACCREDITED BY /CW DESRIANA GILBERT

For thousands of people throughout the world, playground lots filled with images created by chalk, popsicle sticks, and glue bottles are their first depictions of the embodiment of art. Many do not explore beyond the surface level of this school subject; it’s often given only a skewed capacity, such as coloring books and double-sided crayola markers. The complexities and multifacetedness of this sacred skill have always been visually noticed but rarely discussed as a community throughout society for centuries. However, I had the pleasure of sitting down with one of the most talented visual artists who just so happens to be located right here in the heart of Milwaukee. I went into the conversation as one who loves art and uses it as a vessel of optimism and escape but I left the conversation educated and intrigued to learn more after hearing their responses. /CW fam, I introduce you to one of our newest family members, Mutaaaliah.

I fell in love with art in the fourth grade. Just like any kid, I was constantly exposed to it, at school and throughout the city. Nobody sat me down and taught me how to become one with it. Our connection happened naturally. When something is for you, you just know!
— Muta'aliah

MUTA’ALIAH SURROUNDED BY THEIR PHYSICAL ART PORTFOLIO

Muta’aliah has been one of Milwaukee’s most engaging and eye-catching visual artists since 2021. You may recognize the name from being in creative art shows such as Some Fools, Bronzeville Artwalk, Mitchell Street Arts, and La Gente Art Gallery. Their journey has been far from traditional; after dropping out of UW-Milwaukee in 2020, while the pandemic had us all on lockdown, Muta’s passion for art did not die; rather, it intensified. From beginning, a self-taught journey of tracing, they quickly realized the help of other talented individuals would be one of the secret sauces to becoming successful and educated. Collaborating, studying, and watching muralists, painters, and several other types of artists from Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (MIAD) became their everyday routine and instilled more hunger inside Muta’aliah to hone in on their craft as well as apply their own flavor and personality to it. As we sat down, Muta expressed to me that their creative process is to always look at what is transpiring in their own life; from adversaries, accomplishments, and lessons, pull the current emotions out of it and formulate pieces that will display the feeling of what Muta is or has gone through over their lifetime. 

I draw inspiration from what’s going on inside me as well as my surroundings. Milwaukee plays a large part in that. I get a ton of ideas just from the everyday people here that I meet. There’s a unique level of warmth and kindness the city has that is rarely spoken about.
— Muta'aliah

ART PIECE CREATED BY MUTA AT TRUESKOOL’S 2025 JUNETEENTH MURAL CONTEST (FIRST PLACE PIECE)

I was gifted with the presence of Muta’s vulnerable side from the very beginning of the interview. Harsh topics such as psychosis, family trauma, and depression were uncovered and discussed layer by layer. It’s often assumed that visual artists only display positive depictions of life and emotions onto their canvases, buildings and streets; but Muta’aliah gave me a few pages out of their book that was quite the opposite. For Muta, murals and paintings created by them is a coping mechanism and healing process for their own pathway of life. Healing is not linear, predictable, or set on a specific deadline that means your life will go back to being normal or at its most happiest for the rest of your life. Through creating and sharing a message not often discussed, Muta’aliah’s art is more than eccentric and vibrant. In 2023, the artist went through psychosis where they were constantly on edge and had auditory as well as visual hallucinations due to a traumatic event that occurred. Their art piece entitled, “I Kill Vampires” was the therapeutic representation of Muta overcoming psychosis and claiming power of one’s own life back.

ARTWORK CREATED BY MUTA

I want people to understand that healing is an ongoing process. There will be always be triggers even when you think you’ve overcome something. Being vulnerable looks different for everybody. Instead of trying to get over trauma so quickly; I want people to gather the lesson of accepting how trauma has impacted their lives and individuality as a whole, but go at their own pace.
— Muta'aliah

Throughout the interview, I learned one of Muta’s favorite words, VISION. This is what has kept persistency and perseverance at the forefront of their artistry. From moments of wanting to give up, art has never been easy to walk away from and not complete their vision. So what does Muta’s vision look like you ask? ( Yes, I hear you all asking that question through your screens.) It is to create pieces of word that has surrealism, expressionism and storytelling as its foundation that make people not only talk to one another with deep conversation but also think and be completely honest with not only others but most importantly themselves. As any artist would feel, Muta’aliah’s accolades such as winning first place TrueSkool’s 2025 Juneteenth Mural Contest and being apart of groundbreaking showcases makes them feel proud and inspired to keep going to the very top but that's not the reason why Muta continues to create. 

The visual artist’s ultimate goal is to execute their vision of being able to live life the way they would like. Making a sustainable income off of the value of their artistry and becoming a part of the movement for Milwaukee art is the wind that keeps Muta’aliah going. Most importantly, everyday people are learning to face their trauma and navigate life even after the darkness by witnessing Muta create in the moment or their finalized portfolio, which is the overarching message of Muta’s gallery.

Art is the sign of the times. We as artists have the responsibility to show what is going on in our time period. Whether it’s about my personal life or what we as society are facing, it is my job to create by that. Milwaukee art is underfunded and my goal is to become apart of a movenment that gets Milwaukee artsitry funded the way it deserves. There is immense talent here that is given little to no resources.
— Muta'aliah

ARTWORK CREATED BY VISUAL ARTIST MUTA

Muta’s foot is never coming up off the gas when it comes to not only the vision for themselves but for the innovation of the Milwaukee Art Scene as a whole. Go see Muta’aliah’s work in person at 100percentmke, located at 217 N Broadway, Milwaukee, WI 53202 in the heart of Third Ward. This is where Muta was given an artist residency to create, network and connect with the community to buy their artwork or pull up for a deep conversation. (One of Muta’s favorites!) Follow the eccentric and truthful talent @Mutaaaliah and stop by 100percentmke to see the magic in person, buy prints and original pieces from the artist and catch their vibe.

The | PAID | Write-Up: Supporting Independent Arts Journalism Together

After 10+ years of writing about music, art, and creativity with passion and zero pay, we’re making an important shift. As of September 2025, we will no longer be offering free reviews or write-ups for media submissions. Instead, we have introduced The | PAID | Write-Up, a journalism-based creative asset review program that provides write-ups for a modest fee of $25 [+ tax] for artist features and creative coverage.

This change allows CopyWrite to continue providing honest, thoughtful, and constructive coverage — while finally giving value back to the writers and editors who have kept this platform alive all these years. More importantly, it opens the door for artists who may have previously fallen under the radar to access guaranteed high-quality editorial attention.

How It Works:

  • EMAIL COPYWRITE.MKE@GMAIL.COM | ATTN: THE PAID WRITE-UP

  • SUBMIT [1] CREATIVE WORK [EX. 1 SONG, 1 VIDEO | NO ALBUMS]

  • PAY $25 [+TAX] INVOICE

  • RECEIVE POSTING LINK CONFIRMATION ON COPYWRITEMAG.COM

    • WRITE-UPS MAY TAKE 2 TO 4 WEEKS TO POST

Every review will continue to be transparent, thoughtful, emphasizing locally based talent and “all things Urban”, just as our readers and artists have come to expect.

To all the artists who’ve shared their work with us over the years: thank you. You’ve helped us sharpen our pen, expand our perspective, and stay rooted in the creative community. We're proud of what we’ve built together, and hopeful about where it's heading next.

We appreciate your support as we move into this new chapter — one where independent arts journalism is valued, sustained, and open to more voices [& talent] than ever before.

Crowned In Color: Bronzeville ArtWalk 2025

“The Sugar Shack” By: Ernie Barnes

/CW Fam, take a moment to reflect on the image pictured above. What do you see? What emotions come over you? What place does this painting take you to? Ever heard of the phrase, “You just had to be there?” For the first time in my life, I felt that this statement did not apply to me in relation to Ernie Barnes’ The Sugar Shack.


Saturday, (August 9th, 2025), taking place in the heart of Bronzeville, Food For Health, located at 2007 N Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, Milwaukee, WI, presented Crowned In Color: Bronzeville Artwalk. Within the first two steps of walking into the historic venue, a feeling of being transported into Barne’s The Sugar Shack occurred, and it no longer felt like modern day.

The textured tan walls, grand coffee brown stairways, emerald green conversation pits, and speakeasy-inspired dim lighting heightened the ambiance and expectations for the evening ahead. Many may have assumed it would be like any art gallery, where there’s a smooth volume level, a serene musical buffet, and three thought-provoking questions asked to the guests by the welcoming curator. Although that describes a successful art gallery, the Crowned In Color: Bronzeville Artwalk was a unique night for not only the people of Bronzeville, but also for the undying substance of art. 

Growing up throughout the city, I was in every after-school club you can think of; heavily exposed to the different mediums of art such as painting, spoken-word, drawing, and music. Hence why I was as confident as Jordan in game 6 of the 1991 NBA Finals, walking into the showcase thinking I knew exactly how the event would look and feel. I couldn’t have been more wrong as it felt as if I stepped into a modern Harlem Renaissance. What is your definition of art? Is it a form of escapism and peace from your reality? A creative activity you do with your friends or boo as a hobby? This is the question that was continuously spinning in my mind at the beginning of the artwalk, so the only thing that made sense was to ask the sources who were brewing the curiosity and questions inside me—the artists themselves.

“Art is living and not existing. It is beauty in pain but richness in happiness.”-Graphic Designer Savvy Breaux

A sense of euphoria and regalness overcame my spirit and mind as I viewed Savvy’s art pieces throughout the night. As the jack of trades and I talked about their pieces, I observed the deep appreciation and admiration for both bright colors as well as Asian culture that Savvy incorporates into their catalog. Since the age of eight years old Breaux knew the significance of what art is and how it is one of the engines that keeps not only communities going but individual journeys as well. With inspiration as Andy Warhol, life has always been Savvy’s muse when it comes to creating, which is why when asked the question, “Why is art important to Bronzeville culture?” no hesitation occurred.

Artwork By Savvy Breaux

“Representation is born through our art. There’s a massive correlation between Bronzeville’s community members and the city. Walking in spaces like this, it never feels like you’re in Bronzeville or Milwaukee period. We need to change that and start making spaces and places like tonight the norm for Bronzeville’s culture.”-Savvy Breaux

“We are art. Everything we do, from the swag we wear, relationships we have, and interests that make us different from one another, is the bed of art. We don’t even know the type of foundation constantly laid out for art by just being.”-Artist, Tierra Bender 

Bender had a light in their eye the entirety of our conversation. Fascination ran through my veins as they outwardly showed excitement and passion for their art being displayed, Untitled.17. From the moment I witnessed the self-portrait, I was at a loss for words. The continent of Africa immediately struck my mind. Bender then shared how the piece they chose to showcase at this year’s artwalk was a work in progress from the years of 2019-2022. Pieces of Tierra’s parents, Princess Diana’s funeral, and even an old resume of Bender’s made the project whole. 

“Finding yourself is a process. I incorporated things such as what I know love to be in my piece because that is the journey I am constantly on; finding out who I am and where I am going. Art is my coping mechanism.”- Artist, Tierra Bender

Untitled.17 By: Artist, Tierra Bender

This year’s Bronzeville Artwalk was not only the conclusion of a competition between all the artists. Each of their artwork was displayed in businesses in the neighborhood of Bronzeville, and everyone in the community had the opportunity to vote for which piece was their favorite. However; the evening served much more purpose than that. A student scholarship was given to one of CopyWrite’s very own, Arianna Theresa Shelander. The 21-year-old Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design was a featured artist in the artwalk and was completely shocked by her tear-jerking win. She received $500 as her award to continue pursuing her artistry and maintaining the balance of being a full-time mother but also an artist who has a story to tell.

Ari claiming her Student Artist Award alongside her son and artwork

“Art is my only way of coping. I don’t know where I would be without it. Besides my children, Riley and Huey, art is the only time I see light and positivity so clearly. When creating my artwork, I was inspired after birt,h seeing my stretch marks, a revelation came to me. They reminded me of roots underneath trees that give birth to life. Tonight’s piece is a visual representation of that. ” -Artist, Arianna T. Shelander

Artwork by Artist: Vedale Hill

For the last fifteen years, Bronzeville week has celebrated, uplifted, and anchored the acknowledgement of African-American cultu re, art, history, entertainment, and businesses. I don’t know how to explain it, but the city always seems to have a bright spotlight shining down as well as care-free energy around this time every year. Energetic and proud curator and visual translator of the night, Dante Nash, founder of AVRA,  wanted to keep this momentum going by concluding the event with a special thank you to a legend in our city. Another one whose hands help build CopyWrite to what it is today……drum roll please! Vedale Hill, professor at MIAD, teacher, and community leader, was given his flowers to close out the night. Hill has voluntarily taught and mentored countless youth who want to do something productive and motivating to themselves. Vedale is never one to boast; he always remains humble but has been on a mission that nobody talks about for over the last decade.

He left a message to all the guests in the building that I believe is my duty to share with you:

“Never change who you are, your morals, values, or purpose in life for anyone. Yes, you are all dope artists but now what do you do after you’ve learned you are dope? Our young brothers and sisters need to know how to never be taken advantage of and to start fulfilling our own communities by helping each other. I take on all responsibility when it comes to teaching and helping all generations of my people. We are all we have! Let’s not lose sight of that!” -Artist, Educator, and Mentor Vedale Hill
