Lil Wayne Gives Credibility to Jeremy Scotts Teddy Bears

Sneaker designer Jeremy Scott is an advocate of free-thinking and originality, which has landed him quite a few memorable drops within the adidas Originals by Originals line. His most boundary-pushing effort to date may be his Teddy Bear shoes, and while most of us applauded Scott's creativity and adidas Originals for giving him the platform, we wondered if the Teddy Bears would ever be taken seriously on the open market. Would the public embrace these original concepts to the point where they'd go out and spend money in support? Never underestimate the power of a celebrity co-sign, especially when the celebrity is currently as influential as Young Money/Cash Money's Lil' Wayne paul smith bags.

On BET's 106 & Park New Year's Eve Party broadcast, the chart-topper took the stage wearing an outfit that immediately drew attention from viewers. While the Billionaire Boys Club EVA Varsity Jacket was definitely a nice selection, it was Wayne's kicks that have generated all the buzz. On his feet was the brown colorway of Scott's Teddy Bears, which were easily noticeable on TV. An obviously excited Jeremy Scott hit his Twitter followers with a New Year's tweet declaring Wayne as the first person to rock his cuddly kicks.

Since Wayne's performance, there has been a lot more buzz about the Teddy Bears online. Because of the creative nature of the shoe, not only is the shoe being talked about in the sneaker world, but amongst casual sneaker consumers as well adidas jeremy scott wings. Do you think a co-sign from arguably the most popular rapper in the world will lead to the Teddy Bears becoming a must-have shoe in some circles?

The best part about this news is that Scott is going to continue to raise the bar with his designs whether celebrities wear them or not - a true visionary.

I bought Mughal-e-Azam posters - International designer Paul Smith

International fashion designer Paul Smith paul smith tote bags, who was in the Capital, is looking at opening his third store in Mumbai this June. Excerpts from a tete-e-tete with DNA.

Tell us about your Delhi tour...
We went to Hauz Khas village, but some of them weren’t even open. I also went to see my own shop in the mall, it was awesome. I took a lot of photographs and bought some Bollywood posters and vintage tin boxes.

What posters?
Mughal-e-Azam. It appealed to me visually. I didn&rsquo paul smith uk;t know about it, but just liked the imagery.

Are you planning to do something with them?
I’m not too sure what I’m going to do with them. If you see my room in London, you’ll realise that I buy things like that all the time.

Read a lot about the special room. Tell us about it.
I’ve got enormous collections of everything. I enjoy collecting anything that’s just beautiful, or awful, or cheap, or expensive. I just like the mix. The graphics can be so useful for my jeans or tees. I even have around 5000 books in my room, countless CDs and robots.

It’s been described as a mess. Would ‘creative mess’ be the word for it?
Yes, it is. I tend to know where things are, which is quite cool. And I have a very big table in the middle. It’s a real mess, but I get to know if even the alignment changes.

Heard you are working on stamps for the upcoming Olympics too?
Yes, I was asked by the post office to design some stamps for the Olympics. I wanted to make some optimistic designs in cheerful colours — easy to understand, very graphic. I worked on it for almost a year. It’s a legal thing, you can’t get it wrong — there was the Olympic logo paul smith mini car bags, even the Queen’s head had to be in a certain size. I didn’t understand how fanatical stamp collecting is, till I worked on this.

Is it true that you’re obsessed with rabbits?
It’s totally false (laughs). In the early ’80s, I was on a trip going from London to my hometown Nottingham and I was with an American friend. I was day-dreaming when he asked me why I was looking so intently out of the window paul smith wallets? I said, ‘I’m looking for rabbits because if I see one, my collection will sell well.’ I just made that up. He sent me a papier mache rabbit when he returned to New York, and spread the word. Since then I get around 20 rabbits a week (laughs). I should have said diamonds instead of rabbits!
