Et courage aux sapeuses pompières qui luttent en ce moment même.

Quel excellent timing pour insulter l'ensemble des sapeuses-pompières de France et d'ailleurs, vraiment quelle championne, elle déçoit jamais.

When I said that I thought Dandy tailoring was timeless, I was thinking I would have loved to see an Afrofuturist element.

Found les sapeuses Congo with afrofuturist aesthetic.

Omg. Love!

Terrible article. Clearly the writer did nothing to learn about the country's history and reputation for fashion and style.

The sapeurs and sapeuses.

Sapeurs/sapeuses are members of La Sape, ‘Société des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Élégantes’ (Society of Ambiance-Makers and Elegant People).

More so missing and mistaken words...

"Found these sapeuses (women sapeurs) in Congo with an afrofuturist aesthetic."

(Genre, ici, on a des sapeuses-pompières, des électriciennes et des maçonnes et ça ne surprend plus personne)

🚒 RDV avec l'intersyndicale du SDIS pour échanger sur les conditions de travail des sapeurs-pompiers et sapeuses-pompières : encore une fois, ce sont celles et ceux qui nous protègent au quotidien qui paient le prix des coupes budgétaires imposées depuis des années.

Esp. thinking about the Sapeurs (and Sapeuses) in Congo where style, tailoring, often remaking clothes themselves with found garments is self-expression & escape from poverty.
Dandy is about invention ( I still have my first sewing machine!). Which is why choice of afrofuturism is so powerful.

The ones on the left and right look more like sapeuses.

“Though the #Sapeur culture is traditionally passed down through the male line, many #Congolesewomen have recently begun donning designer suits and becoming #sapeuses. By challenging Congolese #patriarchalsociety in this way, they are returning to #LaSape’s origins by reversing the power dynamic.”
