LonDunn x Missguided Athleisure Collection

Missguided Athleisure Collection
Our baby Jourdan Dunn has recently launched a 96-piece athleisure collection in collaboration with Missguided. The line is called "LonDunn + Missguided" and includes everything from hooded sweater dresses, satin dusters, bodysuits, joggers, off the shoulder sweatshirts, velour bombers and more. The British supermodel wanted to focus on creating something cool and chic to match the busy lives of women and girls. She expressed that she wants the line to be accessible and it is quite affordable. The price point is $18-$120, which is very reasonable and I've actually found a few super cute looks to put in my cart. Hehehehe.. “I always knew my first collaboration with Missguided was going to be streetwear and a reflection of my own style,...

Marc Jacobs Fall 2017 RTW

Riley Montana in Marc Jacobs
Marc Jacobs' Hip-Hop Influenced Runway Show The Cool Kids Take Over the Park Avenue Armory We definitely have NOT forgotten about the Marc Jacobs collection from last season that took cultural appropriation to another level with Caucasian models strutting the runway in multicolored faux locks. Immediately after the social media storm, Jacobs began defending himself and his statements only made the situation worse! Aside from that, he listed over 10 inspirations including Harajuku girls, London in the 80's, Boy George, Ravers, House music and more, yet there was just one very important inspiration that was conveniently excluded! The issue he truly faced was not the fact that he used locks in his show, but that it was overwhelmingly white (models) AND he...

Philippe Plein Menswear Fall 2017

From Mugshots to Headshots Prison Bae opens the Philipp Plein Runway Show at Fashion Week Jeremy Meeks, the man we all know and love as #PrisonBae opened the Philippe Plein runway show in a fur-hooded parka with Nas and Lauryn Hill blasting, "If I Ruled the World" in the background. With cheek bones for the gawds, gangsta tats and piercing eyes, Jeremy stole the show (well, the press) and got the opportunity to walk alongside Fetty Wap, Desiigner, and Yung Thug, among others. Plein is looking to take over the American market and believes that (we) are spoiled, but recognizes the economic potential. According to VOGUE, Plein said...
