I
have to say that I love Baby Phat and Kimora Lee Simmons for what they
bring to fashion. Now if only she and designers like her could make
their clothes affordable. Even Beyonce called her House of Dereon
discounted line, Dereon, affordable. $70-100 for a pair of jeans is not
affordable to the girls and young women that look up to them. I’m sure
that if you asked them what they were able to afford when they were the
age of their demographic, they would NOT say $70 jeans. Then again,
Beyonce was opening shows at 14 and Kimora was the face of Chanel at
15, so what do I know.
