Zendaya’s Tommy Hilfiger Collaboration Is Everything
It’s no secret that 22 year old actress Zendaya is a fashion icon, from her crimson red thigh highs at Paris fashion week to her metallic dress at the 2016 Met Gala. Zendaya also recently appeared on the cover of Vogue, where she looked stunning and talked about her new TV show. Zendaya is an amazing actress with a beautiful singing voice that she recently showcased on “All For Us,” which is a collaboration with British singer Labrith for her TV series Euphoria on HBO. But she is also a fashion icon, and now the new global women’s ambassador for Tommy Hilfiger. Tommy Hilfiger released his final collection of TommyxGigi with model Gigi Hadid back in February of 2018 who, for a while, was the face of the brand. Tommy Hilfiger went on to announce that he is collaborating with Zendaya on a capsule collection in October of 2018. The collection was released this spring.

Baby Phat Is Back!
I am old enough to remember the original Baby Phat. This brand was one of few that catered to curvier figures with denim that stretched across the hips of hippies kids to hip hop lovers, all baring a stitched slender kitten on the back pocket.

A little Einstein Hair sometimes, and a quick knock-kneed shuffle in very boring clothing at times, and BOOM! You’ve got yourself a Cambia (Ha! So she says). No seriously, Cambia was born in Southwest Detroit to a mother that left New York in the summer of 1979.

I am a Black woman. I am also a Black fashion designer. The backlash that Virgil Abloh is getting for his latest Off White collection/show has me feeling split down the middle, and don't you worry! I'll give you my reasons why...
Kendria WhitePublished 5 years ago in Styled10 Best Clothing Designers for Your Wardrobe Basics

Although they might not always be as exciting to shop for as the statement pieces, they are things that you will get a lot of use out of, making it worth investing in good quality items rather than just buying a new white tee shirt every few months. From the perfect fitting pair of jeans to a trench coat that will go with everything, these are the brands to keep in mind when searching for wardrobe essentials. If you are clueless about which fashion designers to check out for essentials, or just want to learn about some brands you haven't heard about before (or maybe forgot about), read on!
Ringo MendozaPublished 5 years ago in StyledFrom Illustration to Sewing
There is really not a separate line between illustrating fashion and actually making it. These things go hand in hand. There are very few of us that are so good at it we don't even need to try very hard. This is a very big misconception of the facts. It's is, indeed, hard work. It's hard for everyone. Especially those who have the calling and what it takes. Haven't you heard the saying "Anything that's worth something is never easy?"
