Check Kanye’s blog for the full editorial spread, you can also view video from the shoot below:
Check out Rihanna’s cover for the September Couture Supplement of VOGUE Italia. Shot by photographer Steven Klein, this shoot was reportedly the reason why she shaved the sides of her hair.
Since this is the supplement cover, it isn’t the official cover but gives in sight on what the spread will look like.
For this edition of ‘Rock’d It Better’ we have singer/rapper/dancer Teyana Taylor rocking the same Red Military Jacket to recent events.
She rock’d it first back in February during NYC Fashion Week and again on Monday night for the ‘Halloween II’ movie premiere in Hollywood. Take your pick…
Check out some of the photos from Cassie’s recent photo shoot with DimePiece Designs. We did a CL DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT on DP back in ‘07, so it’s good to see they are still on their grind.
These photos were leaked by Diddy via his twitter page early Monday afternoon and he was bigging up the whole shoot. You can check out more threads and info about DimePiece on their official site.
With their vintage inspired pieces (handmade with West African Ankara Fabrics), up and coming fashion line Boxing Kitten is our newest Designer Spotlight.
Celebrities like Solange Knowles, Fergie, Jack Davey, and Erykah Badu have been spotted wearing these dope pieces. I recently caught up with Maya A. Lake, the creator of this vibrant line, so she could speak a little more about her creations.
1. Background info. When was the company started? Why did you start it?
I had the idea for the line back in 2005, but I didn’t officially start the line as a company until 2006. I have always been very passionate about clothing, costume, and textiles. I wanted to start a line that was different from the other things that were being offered. I think that I have a unique perspective on women’s clothing and I felt a need to share it with other people. As an artist I just feel a need to share my work with others and I don’t want to do it in a typical way, I want to be my own boss and make my own rules. I think that’s the kind of woman that wears my line and the kind of woman that I strive to be everyday.
For this special summer edition of ‘Who Rock’d It Better’ we have Tennis Champion Serena Williams and Supermodel Naomi Campbell wearing the similar black bikinis while out by the water. Take your pick…
Married to the MOB has tapped 18-year-old rapper/singer Teyana Taylor (best known as Pharrell’s protege), to be the face of their fall 2009 “Smells Like Teen Spirit” collection shot by Brooke Nipar at ACE Hotel.
MOB’s fall 1 delivery consists of an array of tees, hoodies, denim, dresses and outwear inspired from the experiences the designers went through growing up as youths in New York City.
Peep www.mttmnyc.com for the info on when you can get the threads and look out for new music from Teyana Taylor later this year.
