Vice has just published the first episode of its new online series Fashion Week Internationale, which follows host Charlet Duboc as she travels around the world to go to non-Big Four fashion weeks. Duboc reports on plastic surgery in Colombia and New York City’s own Full-Figured Fashion Week. These events are to the fashion industry kind of as outsider artists are to the mainstream art world. For the first installment, Vice heads to Islamabad Fashion Week, where Duboc mingles with models, attends a clandestine dance party, and meets Tariq Amin, a hairstylist and makeup artist who is known as “the man who brought style to Pakistan.” And Amin’s son, who wants to be a rapper.
