It’s that time of the year again, the snow melting, rain
pouring, and potholes growing. Yes everyone, spring is back in Detroit. Along
with the season, the fashion scene is changing. It seems the more you look
around, the more it seems that everyone is wearing the same thing as the next
person. I have to tell you as a woman that is the biggest fear to show up
wearing the same outfit as another woman. Living in an urban city full of music
and art, it’s hard to find something rare and unique. I found a place where you
can find that classic look.
It’s called Rhare Footage Clothing Co. It is a classic urban
clothing store. I went to their website and feel in love with a two of their
pieces which was their “he loves me ” and “build Detroit tough” shirts. The
prices are reasonable and the color selection I really like. Not that may
online stores give you that many colors to choose from for every item. Check it out for yourself at http://www.rharefootage.com/
I had a wonderful interview with the owner of Rhare Footage
Clothing Co. For all my readers in the Detroit/ Detroit metro area, Rhare Footage is having a unveiling of their first commerical this Saturday, April 5th from 7 pm until midnight at 5E Gallery 4605 Cass avenue, Detroit MI 48201. Go show support to this wonderful company and see the clothing for yourself, plus there will be live performances and free giveways that night. Don't miss out. |

Here’s the interview,
Enjoy.
1. When did your clothing line
start?
March 2013
2. What is the name of your
clothing line, and how did you come up with that name?
Rhare Footage. I’ve been
thinking of clothing ideas for years, I met with artist, graphic designers, and
more artist and I never clicked with them until I met my partner Titus Johnson
he took my idea of having a Rhare line to always give the consumer something
different and together we built "Rhare Footage" I always try to get
exclusive shoes and I want my own exclusive clothing so rhare footage is rhare
lol.
3. What inspire you when it
comes to fashion?
SHOES. Shoes is my favorite part of all outfits I feel like shoes could
make the dullest outfit the most extravagant in the building. Ex. black Levis
plain black tee? Anybody can do that, but add some "when pigs can
fly" Nike dunks to it and you have a totally different outfit!
4. How would you describe your
clothing line in one word?
RHARE
5. Where can people find and
buy your clothing line?
6. Who do you make clothes for?
(women, men, children)
Men and women, and as of the summer of 2014 children as well.
7. Do you think growing up in
Detroit influence your clothing line?
I’m Built Detroit Tough so yes.
8. Which celebrity style do you
relate to, or inspire your personal style?
Teyana Taylor as random as that might be.
9. What’s the inspiration
behind your clothing line?
I’m inspired by competition I thrive off it.
10. Do you think you are ahead
of the fashion trends? why or why not?
I feel that my line is Classic/Timeless so it will always stay in style
and will never be considered a trend.
11. Would you say your
clothing line is a rebel when it comes to the rules of fashion, or do you play
by the rules?
I’d say it rebels because my clothing line doesn't have a face, you
can't look at rhare footage and say that’s for white people or black or any
other race it’s just classic as I previously stated.
12 What’s the size range of
your clothing line?
Adult XS-5x
13. What message do you want
people to get from your line?
That it’s not ok to be like everyone else be rhare dare to be different
be your own Waldo.
14. If you had to choose one piece from your
clothing line to represent you, which one would it be?
The Built Detroit Tough
15. How hard was it for you to start your own
company?
Honestly God has blessed me with a great day to day job so when I met
Titus we put our heads together started researching material and in a matter of
7 months we had 3 different looks 3 different designs and we went straight to
work.
16. What advice would you give
to someone who wants to start their own clothing company?
Sale to strangers not friends.
