Back in the
day I was friends with Kesh on MySpace followed her blog and followed her career from when she would
design customised clothing for MC’s Jammer (rapper), Dizzee Rascal and members
of Roll Deep. Her own creative look and styling skills lead to her being featured
in i-D Magazine and landed
her a fashion editor role at SuperSuper Magazine.[
During the
mid 200o she was a key fixture in the nu rave scene in London and throughout
Europe as she DJ’ed with Zezi Ifore and
as part of The Coconut Twins.
I enjoyed
reading Kesh’s blog not only for the fashion but She always came out with great
looks for everyday wear and photo shoots and seemed to be having a great time
where ever her and her friends went as they travelled through Europe, New York,
LA, London and everywhere else.
I recently
came across her Instagram page and found
out that American Apparel has recently teamed up with the well-known fashion,
English born artist, fashion designer, DJ and blogger to create a limited
edition collection called Kesh X American Apparel
Once known
for using being very colorful and mixing vintage pieces with items she made
herself (In her early blogging days) Kesh
X American Apparel reflects her are work which is art is very creative and
distinctive.
She uses a lot of bold lines and shapes to create complex yet
simple graphics using cubist-like geometry that conjoins to form facial
features.
I
particularly love the KESH X
American Apparel Cotton Spandex Dress (Dunno if my body is body con ready)
I would have loved for there to be a high waisted ¾ skirt with the eye motif
but that’s just me.
Kesh X American Apparel is available online at American Apparel
and you can check out her artwork at Kesh Continues
