Rapper-Modeled Menswear

OG Maco Featured in OPEN NINE FIVE's Modern and Simple Clothing Editorial

— July 25, 2016 — Fashion
'OPEN NINE FIVE' is a label that was created by a multifaceted Los Angeles designer named Ibrahim Mimou, whose work includes a surplus of simple clothing for men that's both functional and stylish.

Considering the brand's roots, it's no surprise that the modern looks that come from it are targeted towards the laid-back lifestyle that's experienced by Southern Californians. In order to market the simple clothing collection, OPEN NINE FIVE teamed up with Atlanta rapper OG Maco, who wears a series of the brand's Spring/Summer 2017 collection for its editorial.

The resulting images swap back and forth between full color and black and white, with the former working to show off some of the more vibrant features on select pieces of apparel -- including a light rose jacket that has a lilac lining.
