Our very own tahairyy sat down with Ming + Aoki Lee Simmons to talk about college, growing up in the spotlight and what they envision for the new Baby Phat. Get into it:
On International Women’s Day in March, Kimora announced that she would be bringing back Baby Phat, which shutdown in 2011, with the help of her daughters,“it’s going to be an ode to the past but then they will pick it up where we left off.” In June, the brand dropped a surprise collection with Forever 21 that sold out in one day. And later this week, Baby Phat will launch its direct-to-consumer line, which Ming and Aoki describe to me as “full of throwbacks” but “sleeker.
“On the drive to school all the kids would see it, and they would make fun of us. They would go, ‘Why are you up there?’ or ‘Oh, you look funny.’ It wasn't the best thing to ever happen, but I think that it definitely opened our eyes to this whole world where you could be really creative and be who you wanted to be,” says Ming.
Aoki agrees. “It definitely made us bolder because whether you slump your shoulders and hide in the back or you stand tall and smile, you're going to be on the billboard anyway. So you might as well own it, smile big, and just go for it because whether you like it or not, you are in the public eye.”
