Rodarte is on Depop

Anna Sui is on Depop

It&rsquo;s hard to imagine NYC fashion without Anna Sui. In the 1990s, the designer from Detroit made her name as the woman who dressed all of cool, downtown Manhattan. Anna first hit the headlines in 1993 with her baby-doll dresses: the moment Linda Evangelista was spotted in one at that year&rsquo;s couture shows, everyone wanted one. Soon Anna Sui was the most in-demand designer in town, with all the supermodels like Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington lining up for a chance to walk on Anna&rsquo;s runway.

Being kind is part of being a community. It uplifts you and those around you.

So we&rsquo;ve asked six of the Depop community share their thoughts on kindness &ndash; and&nbsp; how it affects their mood &ndash; to inspire and encourage you.

But mental wellbeing isn&rsquo;t just confined to a week &ndash; or a month. So we hosted a live mediation session with Eve from Headspace to kickstart a good habit. Missed it? See the recording&nbsp;<a href="https://blog.depop.com/articles/headspace-meditation">here</a>.&nbsp;

Kind to others. Kind to yourself. It all comes full circle.
