In March, as countries throughout the West went into strict lockdown, a self-described “gay, gun-toting cowboy with a mullet,” called Joe Exotic provided the ultimate escape, in the form of docu-series “Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness.” The big cat owner and his arch nemesis, animal rights advocate Carole Baskin, re-ignited our love for animal prints (which inspired many Halloween outfits) and provided hours of much needed entertainment as they waged war against each other.Ĭhina put on the world’s first completely digital fashion weekĬhina had a first crack at a completely digital fashion week in March, with most of its official schedule playing out on Alibaba’s TMall shopping platform.
