WHAT
IS YOUR TYPICAL DAY LIKE?
HAVE
YOU HAD YOUR
"MADE IT"
MOMENT YET?
SS: I like to start off my day with something organic; body, mind and spirit are real important to me. I then make my way to the shop before opening so I can put in productive drawing time while it is quiet. Once my client arrives I engage in conversation so that they may relax their mind of any nervousness. I wouldn't want them to miss out on the whole experience and forget about their reason behind forever enhancing their body with a ne piece of art.
SS: I don't really think about it like that, I’m a pretty simple dude. I just want real people in my life who really care about me and who want the best for me, because that's all I would want for them. I have such passion for what I do and I feel blessed to be able to work and create something every day.
WHAT
SS: I would say my current state of mind is one of balance. I believe when one doesn't feel threatened by another and feels content within their own lives, it can create an unstoppable energy and driving force. I want this coming year to be the year of expansion and I plan to work with artists from all over the world through collaborations.
OBSTACLES HAVE YOU HAD TO OVERCOME TO GET TO
WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
SS: Most of the obstacles I've had to overcome have all been linked to internal fears, weaknesses, etc., stemming from the person I thought I was supposed to be. I choose every day to apply what I've learned about self-awareness and control to innuence those around me to live up to their own individual potential.

WHAT
IS YOUR CURRENT STATE OF MIND?

HOW LINE?
WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE STYLE OF YOUR CLOTHING
PN: Urban. I think a lot of brands don’t want to use that term, they don't want to use “streetwear”- they shy away from the fact that it's a hip hop brand, that its an urban brand, but I’m all for it. I grew up on hip hop and that’s what I want it to be about, people who aspire to be more than what their given situation is. at’s’ why I came up with the name Rich Kids Club. It’s pretty much coming from nothing and earning a good amount of money and following your dreams and passion. KF: Phil brought up a good point, brands try to expand themselves by not giving themselves the hip hop label but sometimes that might hurt you because you don't know who you are, you don't have an identity. We know who we are. ... Everybody wants to be part of the club, everybody wants to be a part of something special, and that's what this is.
I
READ SOMEWHERE THAT YOU STARTED WITH
500
DOLLARS…
KF: Dream and a dollar. We can use that as a shirt idea. PN: Starting with that little money you have to be very creative in the way that you think. at’s what me and Kevin talk about a lot. Being as creative with that little, we've always thought outside the box about how we can succeed.
WHO
ARE YOUR BUSINESS AND PERSONAL INSPIRATIONS?
PN: I really look up to Kevin Liles, he's always been a mentor to me. As I talk to Stevie [Johnson] more, he was a 7th round [NFL] draft pick, and working hard every day to get where he's at, is inspirational to me.
HAVE
YOU EXPERIENCED YOUR ‘A-HA’ MOMENT?
KF: I'm afraid of having that moment, I don't know if I want that moment until I die. I've had moments when I see progression. I don't want to be a slacker, it's a scary thing. … I just see the top of the top being that moment.
PHILLY NICKS & KEV FOX DESIGNERS, RICH KIDS CLUB
LINDA RODIN FOUNDER, OLIO LUSSO
LINDA WHAT
RODIN
IS YOUR TYPICAL DAY LIKE?
LR: I’m very regimental, at my age I’ve found a formula that works for me and my laziness. I don’t want to put on makeup or do my hair. I eat the same foods, I go to the same places, I started getting bored and I’ve branched out to new coffee shops in the neighborhood but that’s about it. My nephew calls me a “Chihuahua on speed” because I’m always rushing.
WHAT
BROUGHT YOU TO YOUR CURRENT CITY?
LR: “I grew up in Roslyn, New York in the 50’s and moved to Italy when I was 18 and then back to New York City, so I’ve been here basically since I was 20. I speak Italian and though I’d rather be walking down the streets of Rome, New York has everything.”
WHAT
IS YOUR IDEA OF BLISS?
LR: Coming home at the end of the day to take care of Wink, my 2 and a half year old silver poodle, have a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, stare out the window of my apartment to the water, make a simple dinner, watch e Daily Show and e Colbert Report, read e New York Times, answer emails, and nally go to bed early.
HOW
DID YOU DEVELOP YOUR PERSONAL STYLE?
LR: My mother was an artist, had an antique shop and was an interior decorator so I guess that’s where I get [my style] from. I’m quirky and love anything that sparkles, that’s bright and shiny, turquoise blue, pinks, bright colors. I just love vintage knick-knacks. I always love the 25th street ea market, and when I’m in any foreign city I’ll check out the ea markets or antique shops. You can always nd something.
WHAT
INSPIRES YOU?
LR: You could just be walking down 14th street [in New York City] and you’ll see some incredible person, or cheap eyeglasses that bring you back to Italy in the 50s. Artists, books, Bob Dylan…Inspiration is everywhere.
WHAT
IS YOUR BIGGEST REGRET?
LR: I don’t really have any regrets. I wish I’d have thought of things earlier but everything came out of necessity and age makes everything more credible. Timing is everything. I’ve worked hard, but I don’t take anything for granted...
WHAT
IS YOUR
LR: “Simplicity.”

MOTTO?
OF AT
A
KIND
WHAT POINT DID EACH OF YOU DEVELOP A RELATIONSHIP
WITH THE FASHION WORLD?
CM: Oh, I fully wanted to be a fashion designer. I used to draw copies of shots from Harper’s Bazaar. I never really had the technical skills, but the passion for it was there. EC: I was also really into magazines…just always sort of consumptive of the images that way.
HOW
DID YOUR SEPARATE INTERESTS COME TOGETHER TO
CREATE
OF A KIND?
EC: After college we would hear about our friends starting their own businesses and we were really excited about that and anxious to do the same. We needed a sense of ownership. CM: We knew one day we would be sailing our own ship. What excited me was being a supporter for artists. 20x200 was hugely disruptive to the art world. Before that consumers couldn’t really buy art without connection to a gallery. At a certain moment it just crystallized that we should do that for fashion design. EC: Being small town girls, we didn’t always have a lot of access to fashion design. [In creating Of A Kind] we could offer that to girls from wherever! We wanted people to feel like they were really investing in something.
ANOTHER
EQUALLY IMPORTANT FACTOR FOR YOU GUYS SEEMS
TO BE A FOCUS ON THE DESIGNERS THEMSELVES. YOU THAT?
HOW
DO
EC: We focus on one designer at a time and write three stories about them: a bio, and two that are more speciic in terms of their designs or inspirations. For example, Sophie Monet of Venice took us into her workshop and talked about the different tools she uses to create her jewelry. We focus on what makes that designer unique. CM: At the end of the day, it’s what differentiates us. It’s huge for our customers because it’s a way for them to connect.
WHAT
DOES SUCCESS MEAN TO YOU?
EC: If one of the designers gets picked up, if a department store picks up a line from a designer. Or if we get an email from a customer about how much they loved what they bought. CM: And being able to be prootable is always good!
