She is a talented DJ and music producer, broadening her territory to fashion now -- she announced the collaboration on Instagram, stating that "As a trans woman of color I’ve never imagined that this would be possible. Thank you @adrianjoffe @commedesgarcons for allowing me to represent my culture, community, and love of house music. I am truly honored.” The collaborative capsule is set to feature a selection of DJ bags and graphic t-shirts that will arrive later this year. Honey Dijon has been a prominent fan of the fashion industry, performing music at a variety of fashion events in the past including Burberry and Dior runway shows.
