    Designer Spotlight: LaQuan Smith

    by Claire

    Hey!
    So if you’re a veteran Fashion Bomb reader, you may remember a video I shot one Fashion Week where I interviewed a young designer named LaQuan Smith:

    laquan-smith

    Well, Mr. Smith is still producing his line LaQueue, which includes sequined tube dresses, vinyl jump suits, ruffled tops, and metallic separates made for the girl who wants to stand out:

    laquan-smith-1

    laquan-smith-2

    laquan-smith-3

    laquan-smith-4

    Perfect for the party circuit, his frocks and tops are favored by friends like Aubrey O’Day:

    aubrey-and-laquan

    And Jaslene Gonzales…

    jaslene-in-laqueue

    Hot!

    On top of being endlessly sexy, his dresses are supremely affordable, ranging in price from $120-$200!

    For more info, e-mail Kelly at info@blackandwhitefashion.net.

      I love his designs!!! LaQuan is not only a true artist but he knows what shapes a woman’s body. He truly captures the strong element of elegance and femininity. It’s fresh, appealing and eclectic. I think that people will notice that it will reflect their own personal style without taking over their look by being supertrendy.

      For the most part, his designs look hot BUT, why couldn’t he get some black models to wear his designs? Skinny, regular lookin’ white girls that all look the same are played out.
