Prabal Gurung on Memoir 'Walk Like a Girl'

Prabal Gurung on Memoir 'Walk Like a Girl'

Prabal Gurung is a fashion designer who wrote a book called 'Walk Like a Girl'.

The title comes from a phrase people used to say to him when he was younger to make him feel weak.

But Prabal thinks that being feminine or showing emotions is actually a sign of strength.

He grew up surrounded by strong women and goddesses from stories, which taught him that being vulnerable is powerful.

In his book, he talks about difficult things like abuse and body image, but he says it's important to acknowledge pain without letting it define you.

He believes that how you present yourself in the world can be a form of revolution, and for him, that means embracing his feminine side.
