Style Public School Is Complex’s Brand Of The Year

Already sick of end-of-the-year wrap-ups? Get used to them because for the next two weeks they're going to be all over the blogosphere. We just put up our 2008 Complex Style Awards, featuring winners in categories like Sneaker of the Year, Best Sneaker Technology, Best Accessory Brand, Celebrity Trendsetter of the Year (guess who?) and of course, the coveted Brand of the Year.

Which brings us to Public School. Oh-eight was major for Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, the two Sean John veterans who founded Public School. Rather than churn out the usual trendy T-shirts and faux cut-and-sew pieces, PS released forward-thinking outerwear that did numbers in high-fashion retailers like Barney's. If you're not up on Public School, we suggest you get familiar, quick. Check out all the winners of our style awards in our feature HERE, then watch our brand new “Cut & Show” video with Public School below.
