00:02These fashion shows are there for the world to see.
00:05If you can use the platform that you have and give that opportunity to the survivors

00:58When I looked in the media and I saw how many women would tell their stories, especially

02:05I live there and I see first hand how things are run and I really hope that it does change.
03:05Hey, hey, hey, don't touch me!
