!the coconut twins!

These are the girls hitting the London underground scene at the moment with more than just their experimental electro D.J. antics oozing style and attitude under the belt. Let me introduce you to the coconut twins, that is if you haven't heard of them already. There's Kesh: dj, entrepreneur, fashion designer, and Zezi who describes herself as the 'preposterous girl’ both recently pictured in i:D looking red hawt in some crazy couture! With influences ranging from Bjork to Bounty Killer, this duo has landed many gigs in and around London town's most eclectic haunts- The End, Dirty Canvas, as well as border crossing into Paris Fashion Week and recently Berlin, and individually they are working towards different channels forming networks to behold! Pimp!
See I’m intrigued by Kesh's fashion label which is gaining international recognition in the States with its colour doodle drizzled graphics. What’s cool about Kesh Wear is the fact that I don't know anyone who's ever heard of it (perhaps something to do with being in Edinburgh), reminiscent of BAPE days before eBay overindulged. Its super exclusive and to be fair I’d be sad to see it go boutique style just because the high street will follow suite. Find Kesh in April Vogue modelling for Kate Moss's new line for topeshope.
Another designer, in this !pimp! network is Carrie Mundane whose label CASSETEPLAYA is too so nice! I coolclocked her outside Topshop Ox St not knowing who she was. The very same day I opened up latest issue of i:D and bam there she was rocking the same skirt but in a different colour. She is so friggin awesome yeh and that's said groupie style. Her collection like Kesh's is MENTAl. It looks insane- like its so close to the 90's that you almost get scared, in the sense that you don't want to look like your wardrobe has not been updated since the 90's.
But then on closer inspection you realise that actually this is the real deal. Finally a designer who designs clothes that only smart people can wear! I love, love when you become the only person out of a group of 10 that can pull something off. Obviously you need confidence and balls, but when designers like Kesh and Carrie are both the former and the latter that only comes natural to the person who chooses to rock it. Like these girls have serious skittle attitude. It’s really interesting to finally find designers making the street style rather than reinterpreting it into a 'wearable' collection.
