Prince is the epitome of streetwear, he carries a silent cockiness and an unspoken charisma that turns head everytime he walks the street. His line, HOOD by AIR, has no correlation to anything I've seen before, it's very outside the box with a touch of futurism. This 20 year old exudes talent that cannot be challenged, and a look that's undefinable. Fashion wasn't a choice for him, it was embedded in his D.N.A, you can find him in the backstreets of L.E.S, to the streets of Harlem. Hood by Air's clothing can be found in Seven New York which is located on 110 Mercer on the backstreets of Soho; as well as in Classics.
What can I say about him? Except that he's an individual who's not afraid to take risks. He's high fashion with street slang, he's passionate yet very laxed. When I asked Prince what's his inspiration, he said, "the air around me, and the fact that I'm from the hood. Fashion isn't subjectory, it's room to express myself and that's what we wanna do, show that you can do more than that ghetto shit. Hood is being fearless, and the air is uncontrollable."

Paulina
The exemplar of a glam- trust fund baby with an edge. Paulina stands at a beautiful 5'7'' with legs that can knock out an insomniac. She runs her own website, consisting of S&M items and is also a designer as well as a performer.
I've recently discovered that she's working on an album, this girl doesn't sleep, she works a full-time job and still manages to record until the break of dawn. She is the manager at Anna Sui boutiques, a promotion she just recently accomplished. The beautiful girl with the exaggerated eyes and strong features can be seen walking the streets of the lower east and west villages. She manages to demand attention, without saying a word. She's domineering but never controlling and I find that she will be a vixen of the fashion world. Watch out world, here she comes in her suicide heels ready to kill.

Not only as a muse for Kevin Amato, David Bergman and Devon Comming; but he has already started working on his own magazine co-founded with Tishka DuPera called "Nystagmus".

SILENT
Mysterious and sexy are two of the many words used to describe Tishka DuPera; this young photographer with a flair for fashion and a dream of one day owning her own Boutique with an Art Gallery feel, was born in Nassau, Bahamas. This beauty's cultural background all contributes to her obscure features. She has become one of New York's street fashion trend setters, with a versatile style ranging from Mod-Punk-Glam.
I once asked her, where did you get your style from, she responded," I'm an artist, I'm not a 'fashionista' or any of those ridiculous labels they wanna subject me to, I love art, fashion happens to be within that element, so I guess I had no choice but to merge them."
With her edgy unique look and her bold walk, Tishka stands out at a strong 5'10; she is sure to be the Amazon of the Fashion World.
