'PULLING & PARTING' (Director's Cut)

A short film directed by Otis Dominique for Erin Corrian-Alexis' graduate collection 'Pulling & Parting'. Inspired by the intricate styling techniques used to maintain afro hair, Erin has created a changeable footwear collection featuring Mongolian fur that acts as a canvas for the wearer to manipulate. Erin shares the significance of the collection and her personal hair journey in an attempt to celebrate the beauty of black hair.
