Studio M.I.A.

Fashion – New York - Brooklyn

Born in Kingston. Jamaica and moved to Brooklyn NY when I was 10 or 11 years old. I got into fashion originally in High School while experimenting with T-shirts, I used to take a plane shit and paint different designs and or prints on them. One day while aimlessly walking the streets of NY I was stopped a few times by random people asking to see my shirt. When they asked "where did you get it? I replied I made it myself, some didn't believe me and others were impressed. When I realized that I had potential clients who would purchase my shirts I started to study traditional fashion design, merchandising and direct and interactive marketing.
