Mowalola Explained: How Mowalola Keeps Winning Despite Critics | PLEASE EXPLAIN

Why does Mowalola upset people? Why is she, a Black woman designer, a rarity in fashion? Is she trying to provoke people with her designs? How is she defying the traditional fashion system? Is putting the N-word on a shirt problematic? Fashion designer and artist Mowalola Ogunlesi will explore these questions, and more, on Please Explain. And host, Aria Hughes, will break down why it costs $250,000 to put on a 15-minute fashion show in the Fashion Sense segment. "Please Explain Hosted by Aria Hughes" is an explainer show about culture, fashion, and music that brings context, not confusion, to the internet.
