Breed

Hello all! I hope everyone is doing well and creating some amazing work! I wanted to take a moment to let you know about a major change for this page. As you all know, Breed was created by the late, great, Melissa Rodwell, and we are dedicated to continuing her vision for the creative fashion community. That being said, we (the current admins) do not have ownership of this page and if someone decides to remove Melissa's internet presence, this page will be gone. In order to prevent that from happening and to continue to engage with all of you, we have created a new group called NuModa. Going forward, this will be the platform for new postings, announcements and events. Everyone who is a member of this group will automatically be accepted, so please take a moment and join NuModa!

Missing Melissa — Trawick Images Many of you know of my involvement with The Breed and Melissa Rodwell’s regional fashion workshops.  You might not know how much I owe Melissa for helping me overcome a deep depression during the recent pandemic lockdown of 2020.  Melissa created a Facebook group “Fashion Phot

Melissa Rodwell passed away Sunday, July 17, 2022. Melissa was a force in the fashion industry and a positive influencer for so many. Please post sympathy comments on her personal profile for the family.
Melissa made a huge impact on my life and is credited with helping me overcome the depression I faced during the downturn of the pandemic. I owe her such a debt of gratitude and it was a blessing having her in my life. She will be deeply missed and never forgotten. - posted by Robert Trawick
