The importance of sequins

I felt pretty useless when the pandemic started. Stuck in my tiny apartment; surrounded by sequined pants, more tulle than I could store, and extravagant outfits for my cat. I had a fabulous wardrobe (and cat) but I was broke, unemployed and had nothing to offer the world - which was crumbling all around me. What good is fashion in the face of such a crisis? I felt a bit like a nail that has been pushed-in; compressed by the heavy weight of a hammer with nowhere to go.
