About
FANG (fang.nyc, @fang.nyc)
Founded in New York City and inherently cultured, FANG is a gender-expansive fashion line that aims to redefine the relationship between fashion and gender, and explores the dichotomy between femininity and masculinity. With the initial goal of diversifying fashion for queer-minded people, FANG’s collections have challenged dated values and unhealthy expectations. The label hones in on statement knitwear designs and beyond that are aesthetically inclined and forward-thinking while simultaneously offering comfort and support for every body and identity.

The Carry Nation
The Carry Nation (Nita Aviance and Will Automagic) are DJs and producers whose style is deeply rooted and fundamentally intertwined with the historical arc of New York City’s most affirming nightlife experiences. Since the inception of The Carry Nation, the duo has toured the world extensively including Glastonbury’s Block 9 and Berlin’s Berghain/Panorama Bar among many others. They also have a residency at Ladyfag’s flagship monthly Battle Hymn.
Word of Command
DJ, artist, and techno impresario Word of Command welds fevered collage and high-octane techno into hallucinatory ecstasy. Influenced by his Cuban-American upbringing and early love of radio, he breeds chaos and catharsis in every set. He is the founder of FIST (Fun is Still Transgressive), a queer techno party that pays tribute to radical fun, while engaging the visibility of communities of otherness through techno in NYC.
