M.I.A.’s new clothing line
has arrived at Karmaloop. Born Mathangi “Maya” Arulpragasam, the singer/artist
has just released a collection that reflects her own personal eclectic style.
As is the trend nowadays for celebrities to launch their own brands, it was no surprise,
but almost expected, for this fashion innovator to do the same. Featuring
bomber jackets, leggings and bodysuits, the debut collection screams loud and
clear with bright bold hues and graphic prints. M.I.A. prefers to keep the
brand underground, hoping to produce a rich and avant-garde aesthetic that
allows her biggest fans to emulate her signature style. Therefore naturally,
hints of her up-and-coming brand reached her devotees by way of a head-spinning
video entitled “Real Pirates of the Caribbean”. The video features a young,
florescent blonde-haired boy, Okley Leslie, who models and flaunts pieces from
the collection that can be found on the singer’s website and Karmaloop.com. Her
limited edition pieces are must-haves for those who also wish to exude their cutting-edge,
flashy style. Break new ground with The Afrika Jacket, The President Tee in
White, The Mexico Bodysuit, The Watermelon Hoody, The How Many Pullover and The
Afrika Leggings.
Check out the rest of the Okley by M.I.A. collection here.
