Sunday’s Best

I always think it’s dope shining light on black folk in the fashion industry. Courtney Mays has been a top stylist for years now and Chris Paul’s personal stylist. One of many stylist taking the NBA by storm. Ten years ago what NBA players wore to their games and press conferences were atrocious, now it’s big business.

Ghetto Until Proven Fashionable

Moschino’s Pre Fall 2020 show was satire at its best. But that’s what Creative Director Jeremey Scott has always been known for. That being as it may, where as a culture do we draw the line of mockery and a clear admiration for what Black Culture has brought forth to fashion and mainstream media.

Role Model: Lakeith Stanfield

Many of you know him from his co-star role on hit series Atlanta starring Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino, or ten minute role in the instant cult classic “Get Out”. But the brother is much, much brighter than the limelight has shown him in these occurrences. For one, he is outright Black, and I mean that in the strongest connotation possible, also Stanfield is advocating Black advancement in entertainment. One of the reasons he has become one of my favorite actors in Hollywood.

Where’s Waldorf?

This fall our first capsule collection “Where’s Waldorf” is inspired by the classic Where’s Waldo books. But a DMV(DC, MD, VA) version playing off the on going DC/MD jokes of inclusion with the city of Waldorf which is 45 minutes outside of Washington, DC.
