"We Come in Peace, but We Mean Business..." --Janelle Monáe
As a female established and operated company, dRA Clothing has always been a brand that honors and celebrates the strong women who continue to inspire us.
On Positive, Female Role Models:
Brenda Chapman
Writer and co-director of Disney’s Brave:
"...give young girls a better, stronger role model, a more attainable role model, something of substance, not just a pretty face that waits around for romance."
Kelly Clarkson
On Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman:
"It's cool to have a superhero chick for your daughter to be like, 'I wanna dress like Wonder Woman.’”
On Equality and Camaraderie:
Ai-jen Poo
"..we have momentum, and we want to say to everyone that they should join us. This is a movement where there's space for everyone and there's a role for everyone."
Kat Sadler's departure from E! after salary discrepancy:
"Know your worth…how can I operate with integrity...if they’re not willing to pay me the same as him? How can I accept an offer that shows they do not value my contributions and paralleled dedication all these years?”
Oprah
“What I know for sure is that speaking your truth is the most powerful tool we all have. And I’m especially proud, and inspired by all the women who have felt strong enough and empowered enough to speak up and share their personal stories.”
“I want all the girls...to know that a new day is on the horizon. And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women...and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say ‘Me too’ again.”
