Violette

Violette

Launched this fall, Violette has been percolating in the mind of downtown New York denizen Vashtie Kola for over eight years. Kola got her start as the director of creative services for Def Jam and directing music videos, such as the You Tube favorite “Us Placers” video featuring a baby Kanye. Violette is a mix of hip hop and rock and will primarily be for the ladies, although a Violette Homme line of tees will be launched for men. Already a hit in Japan, Violette is available at Colette in Paris, Fruition Las Vegas, and online at violettenewyork.com.


Worship Worthy

Worship Worthy

What once began as a popular trend forecasting website has grown into a full on brand with the push from designer Jennifer Wannarachue. Worship Worthy’s first collection, which plays on the forces of good and evil, is a sexy mix of t-shirts, sweatshirts, and leggings. The brand’s trend forecasting background is evident in their commisoning of a Dutch grafitti artist to create their gothic logo. The line will be available at Reed Space, Cultist Shop, and Bauhaus, and wwtnyc.com.


MadeMe

MadeMe

MadeMe combines designer Erin Magees two loves—Madonna and streetwear—in one rocking mix. A streetwear veteran with two years production experience at world famous Supreme, Magee launched MadeMe to bring quality streetwear to the ladies. This fall marks her third collection, which is a mix of French influences with New York edginess, including the obligatory Madonna references. Check it out at mademeclothing.com.

Married to the MOB

Married to the MOB

This “street” inspired brand, created by miss Leah McSweeney, was one of the first brands out there that catered solely to females. No longer just a t-shirt brand, MTTM has expanded into cut and sew, denim, accessories not to mention the notable collaborations. These included two bikinis with KAWS, a bag with German accessory house MCM, a cashmere beanie with Kangol, a tee shirt designed by French female- graffiti artist Fafi and most recently, a tri- collaboration sneaker with Reebok and Colette in Paris which sold out in 23 minutes online. 2009 promises to be an exciting year for MTTM. Complex endorsed.
