NBA star Russell Westbrook talks to Bloomberg Pursuit,  about the troubles, and differences between making and breaking it in the fashion world.

Since becoming one of NBA’s most recognisable faces, more about Russell has now managed to create a strong and impactful movement into the fashion industry. Despite having a tasteful eye for high end and street-wear clothing, he never denied the struggle people go through making it in the industry.

Russell spoke some wise words about his journey from a well known athlete, to an influential fashion head. “You have to be committed to going out to meet different people, having your ears open, not thinking you know everything about fashion. The creative stuff, I think, comes from within.”

After talking of his struggle within fashion, Russell also gave us an insight into his life before fame, where he said “It’s important for me to stay close to my roots. I wasn’t always able to afford shirts that cost $2,000. I want to be able to relate to the people I grew up around, the people in my neighborhood, inner-city kids, anyone who wants to dress nice and might not have money. Mixing high and low gives people a sense of how to do it without spending too much.”.

Gucci has been on everyone’s list lately.

It is not really surprising: Alessandro Michele, the man behind the legendary Italian brand, makes sure that his every creative move is even more striking than the last one. Take his 2016 Cruise collection, which is now available to be seen in full on the brand’s recently relaunched website. Keeping up with the 70s trending vibe, the designer made every piece stand out with this unique combination of the masculine and feminine resulting in an almost naively romantic but ever so nerdy combination. But do not be fooled: every piece in this range is on the peak of fashion, starting from the loose wide-leg jeans to the colourful jumpers with whimsical prints. But the genius of this creation hides in the fact that despite its quirkiness, there is something here for everyone: here are the mid-length shorts for the hotter days, your classic suede coats in case you need to dress to impress, and of course a variety of floral printed totes and backpacks to carry around all your essentials in style, all served on the Persian ruggs. What can we say? Bellissimo!
