Fashion: Shake Your Money Maker

Santigold is one of our favorite pattern and pop culture mavens.  Not only did she inspire our first post, we’re always amazed at the concoctions she throws together when going on stage, both lyrically and visually. It just so happens that Santi is the newest member of Nixon’s Women’s Program, a marketing initiative that fuses fashion, culture and music.  Interestingly, Santi’s signature pose is cloaked in an 80′s style jumper that’s covered with money. We have to believe there’s a satirical element to this layout, similar to Jean-Charles de Castelbajac’s one dollar bill dress. With the economy on the tip of everyone’s tongue, creative reactions to our collective dependence on wealth are only a natural occurrence.


More this way...
