Baby Phat channeled 1940’s flappers, mixed them with 90’s B-Girls and gave us their Fall ’08 collection. Kimora Lee Simmons’ runway shows never cease to dazzle and amaze with her bold interpretations of the past and over-the-top visualizations of the present. Simmons’ 2008 flappers wear feathers in place of fringe, fitted minidresses with cargo pockets in place of ruffled skirts, and flouncy bustier tops with ‘Hammer’ pants. As is typical of Baby Phat, a wide range of colors was on display along with the Fall season’s trends – ruffles, accordion pleating and bishop sleeves with charmeuse, satin and silks as the fabrics of choice. Realistically, you likely won’t find any of these looks on Baby Phat.com but since Kimora is the representation of fantasy, why shouldn’t her collection be?
