New Interview of Cartoonist Trina Robbins by Sydney Heifler

"A Sartorial Life — Conversation about Fashion and Comics with Trina Robbins" is a new interview by Sydney Heifler for WomenWriteAboutComics.com. Trina Robbins is an American cartoonist. The two discuss the intersection of comics and fashion and their love of both.
"Even though she might be better known for her work in comics (having initiated the underground women’s comix movement in the 1970s), fashion has always had a place in Robbins’ life. It might surprise some to know that Robbins was involved in fashion long before she started in comics. At times, her two interests have converged, with her comics art appearing in Prada’s Spring/Summer 2018 collection and her most recent (and Eisner-nominated) book, Gladys Parker: A Life in Comics, A Passion for Fashion, focusing on cartoonist and designer Gladys Parker. Overall, Robbins’ involvement and love for fashion deserves broader recognition and, at the very least, to be the focus of a good conversation. Earlier this year, we sat down (over Zoom) to discuss her love of fashion and how it has changed throughout and influenced her life."
