Our Creators

Niege Borges, a Brooklyn-based creator who has hand-drawn designs for NY Support System clothes, loves "that moment when I am walking in the city being busy and thinking about a bunch of different things and I see something that makes me realize that I feel at home in this chaotic and big city away from my first home. It also makes me think of people that were able to finally find a home after struggling wherever they are from originally."
