"I'm the Izza Kizza!"


Jeanette Converse (Love Brigade Ninja Assistant), Dan (Izza Kizza’s manager), Jennifer (Worship Worthy)

Love Brigade was recently asked to style rapper, Izza Kiza, Timbaland's new protege'. We sent Alyssa Key and Jeanette Converse(our ninja!) to bring a new and fresh Lower East Side-esque style to the gorgeous girls of his new music video, "I'm the Izza Kiza". These are not your average video girls. They are strong, ambitious women with fire in their eyes and sexy skirts around their waists. Pair that with edgy T-shirts and punky accessories. These women don't chase Izza Kiza in the clubs, they sign him to their own record labels. Much like the Love Brigade woman herself.



The video will feature some of our most amazing pieces from Sessen IV, Love, Kurt, and Ex Oh. There was also some fabulous pieces used from Manslaughter for Mishka and Worship Worthy.

Be sure to keep an eye out for the debut of "I'm the Izza Kiza" featuring styling from Love Brigade most likely due out after the holidays.

A Special Dedication



"Memories last forever, even when friendships don't"
- Love Brigade

Going Home.

Jamie Rockaway, one-third of our collective, is on a life-changing journey in Argentina. It's been many years since he has seen his family, but in a about one week, he will be giving a very special Christmas present to them. Jamie is traveling all over Argentina and making a surprise visit to reconnect with his family. We miss him dearly, and look forward to his return to his home at Love Brigade.

Photos are in from the Manslaughter for Mishka launch party, courtesy of Nicky Digital. We hosted for our friends Valissa Yoe and Mad Marietta at our retail store in Williamsburg, Love Brigade + Friends. We are proud to be the only retail store on the globe to carry Manslaughter.

Check out the photos here!

Manslaughter for Mishka is the first line of Couture Streetwear tailored to bloodthirsty babes. Manslaughter is an experimental reconstruction of Mishka's Streetwear designs. This metamorphosis now serves the innocent their first taste of vicious.

Designers Mad Marietta and Valissa Yoe collaborate on Manslaughter, proving opposites create balance by weaving Marietta's dark, nocturnal vision with Yoe's sultry, fiery side.
