As you know B Hawk is no stranger to this section of my blog, he exemplifies what it is to be effortlessly chic, so when he asked that I help him with this shoot for the promo of a new web-series "Pinned x Stitched", I said YES!
When I arrived to the The OG Studios, in Brooklyn, I had the pleasure of meeting his creative counterpart, Meron. Meron was just as stunning, stylish, and pleasant as her partner B Hawk, which made the shoot all the more enjoyable,
The web-series is a means to bring yet another facet to the already multifaceted aesthetic of AFROPUNK style/fashion, They'll be catering to the specific interests of the AFROPUNK fan base,
Think of it as a "What Not To Wear" that has been flipped on its head, studded, re-purposed, leatherized, blackened, PINNED x STITCHED, and doused with a copious amount of edge.
As a person who appreciates all facets of style, I couldn't be more excited to see the end result. I am extremely elated to have been able to be a part of this movement during its beginning stages, however small the role I've played or play in the future...It was an honor.

"We first met at Buffalo Exchange almost 2 years ago and haven't separated since. The idea of the show was something we discussed randomly one day while hanging out in The City. We weren't seeing people that looked like us on TV or the Web. So one day, while at Buffalo Exchange, B hawk told a mutual friend named Justin Allen about the show and he then told his friends that worked at Afro Punk. We are very excited to get this opportunity to work with the Afropunk family by bringing a different view on the Fashion World."
