Feronia Fashion Night is an initiative taken by the team of Redo Times Pvt. Ltd., to raise awareness on the very sensitive topic of gender equality and LBTQ inclusiveness !! It is the first androgynous fashion show in India that brings together models from LGBTQ community together take the first steps of their modelling career !!
The name Feronia is inspired from the Roman goddess of Freedom, Health, and Abundance !! A goddess, who granted freedom to slaves and basic civil rights to the humblest part of society, the legend of Goddess Feronia continues to be a part of the Roman folklore with the Goddess being especially honoured among plebeians and freedmen !!
Much like those times, equality is a virtue of the fight of LGBTQ community in today’s era !! The LGBTQ community world-wide also needs freedom to live with dignity and there is no greater metaphorical symbol of our struggle for Freedom than Goddess Feronia !! At a time when countries are handing death penalties to people for being gay or transgender, perhaps we can draw hope and inspiration from the legend of Feronia !!
