While we love smaller fashion designers, they’re scrappy, they usually come with the creative flair where larger designers fair to tread, can’t help but preview the Sean John show. Why? Because although the aesthetic started in the streets it went upscale fast, while maintaining an edginess found nowhere else. Putting a finger on it is an altogether difficult thing to do. The answer is the street. It is urban…yet not so much. When news of a women’s line started to spread, everyone asked is this from the same guy that brought us Craig Mack, Total, Jodeci and Notorious BIG? Yup. Notch one for upscale street chic as well.

One can only wonder what Sean John will be once the show starts.
