My adidas F&F Conductor

The release of the Collective - Court to Concrete pack has been a highlight of my year, but there is still something waiting to be revealed!

As most of you know by now, each one of us @erniepunk @tommy_triggah @defynewyork got to do our own very personal F&F shoe and I am so excited to already give a first peek and show you all I have been working on tomorrow. 

As the only woman on this curators team (apart from the wonderfully talented @tiffanycrewsss who made all of my collaboration dreams come true together with @tduffles202) I felt the urge to represent and pay tribute to the many inspirational female tastemakers, who paved the way with style and grace for women like me.

Hip Hop and so called streetwear would not be as diverse, colourful and exceptional without their contributions and genius.

Whether behind the scenes (@janettephoto@marthacoopergram @iamaprilwalker @misahylton@bevysmith @juneambrose @gr8fullgirl @kmilele@moluv4nyc @deardrewdixon ), in the spotlight (@mcdebbied@imroxanneshante @saltnpepaofficial @queenlatifah@sparkydmusic @mclyte #finesseandsynquis @djjazzyjoyce ) on the streets or even just as plain inspiration for the guys who ‚did it for the honeys‘‘.

(Black and Latino) women played a vital role in HipHop‘s style history by de- and re-constructing it, by playing with gender and class specific status symbols and by elevating style in a new context.

Please feel encouraged to comment any women you feel have contributed to the culture in the 80s to celebrate them and widen the picture!
