Today is unofficially men’s fashion day!
There’s a lot of male-centric news happening in the world of style, namely artist Ron Bass’s new collaboration with Forever 21.
Bass, who sprung into our collective conscious after his Basquiat
inspired hats and jackets made their way onto the backs of Jay Z and
Swizz Beatz has now collaborated with the mass retailer on a line of
mens and womenswear, slated to hit stores December 19th.
What you can expect: colorful tees, signature dashikis, faith based
symbolism, and so much more! About the partnership, Bass says, “I’m
elated. For all individuals that ever told me I inspire them: this is
for you. You just never know. If you always continue to fight and push,
these types of things can happen. I’m no different from that person who
is sitting in front of their computer all night, thinking their designs
may never get out. I hope this shows how far you can go if you stay
true. This is for us. It’s a way to represent my culture on a national
platform, and give back in a way that will continue to inspire.” Preach!
Mark your calendars for December 19th, and stay tuned to this space for more images from the forthcoming collab.
