"Boop-Oop-a-Doop!". This phrase will bring back nostalgia for some of you especially the silent generation and baby boomers. Millennials and Gen-Z probably have never heard this line before. It is my pleasure to introduce you to the iconic character Betty Boop. I found Betty Boop while watching old VHS tapes that belonged to my grandparents. I was attracted to her femininity and the strength she embodied with it. She was girly in every sense; she even openly wore a garter on her left leg, still, she was a leader, her authenticity stood her out and she navigated the world on her terms. These drawings are over 20 years old and not all were finished properly. Betty Does Fashion is created with a purpose; this is me sharing with the world the artistic imaginations of Canaan Dewey; as a gay black teenager growing up in the suburbs of Essex County, New Jersey.
