The Barely Legal Fashion Designer
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010
While everyone dreams of having a party for there 21st birthday, maybe flying to Vegas to get to have that first sip of alcohol. LaQuan Smith the Queens-based, women’s wear fashioner who just turned 21, was designing an ocean-inspired collection for New York Fashion Week and dressing Celebs like Lady Gaga and Rihanna.
He taught himself to sew on his grandma’s machine, made his own designs, showed up uninvited to fashion parties wearing his own designs and 6 in heels, and introduced himself to the right people.
LaQuan mentioned to Daily Candy, Kanye once stopped him to approve, saying “I like your style.”
