The Birth of MJ’s Bad Jacket-Engineered by Remy-Part 1 of 2

The Birth of MJ’s Bad Jacket-Engineered by Remy-Part 1 of 2

It was the night before Remy was set to headline for a Sunday night fashion event. While he was out sourcing materials he received a call from stylist Joe Exclusive and his assistant Jamarcus. They needed a custom jacket commissioned for stylist Jason Griffin and his client, music artist Lil’ Mama.

They had an MTV event just around the corner and a vision of a jacket they desperately needed but COULD NOT find. Remy had an event to take care of too, tomorrow night’s fashion show! He still needed to finish his sewing and prepare for the show but the thought of designing this custom jacket was burning in the back of his mind. With an 11:00 pm wrap up Sunday night, he made a call, got the details and had taken on creating a Michael Jackson inspired look straight off MJ’s “Bad” album cover.

On the cusp of finishing one project, Remy was on the verge of beginning a new one. No rest for the driven. Embarking on an intense four day process to have the “Bad” Jacket designed, finished and shipped to New York City for Lil’ Mama’s 21st birthday and taping he had to get down to business.

Day one and two was all about study, research and gathering materials. “To me the jacket should be bold and a statement for fashion forward tastes,” said Remy. “The statement I wanted to make with this design is it can work with anything and not necessarily have to be with a biker look. You can dress it up and still adhere to the doctrine of elites or dress it down and be admired for a rebellious state of mind.” Keeping the entire design black and silver, his fabrics of choice were black leather and polka dot suede. “When your ‘Bad’ black isn’t just your color but your persona,” said Remy. With zippers wrapped around the jacket, along the arms and hand sewn silver buckles that pop as the accents, the form fitting jacket captures that persona to a tee.

Day three: construction time. It’s 7 hours into the process and the jacket is 85% done. With Griffin already in New York he’s pressed to center all of Lil’ Mama’s looks around this jacket. The sound of anxiety riddles his voice since he hasn’t even seen the final look and of course it’s not even finished. There’s only two days left till the fitting, one day left to make shipment cutoff and plenty of sewing and designing that still need to be finished! Cutting their conversation short Remy had to get back to work.

“I’m racing against the clock. I was sewing and the thread breaks! The leather was fighting me like a mad cow gone wild,” Remy said. But among the mess, the re-cuts and re-designs it was finally finished Wednesday night. Day four was last inspection and finishing touches. “It’s hard to tell from the photos because this jacket is all black but in person its one amazing looking jacket. Now I only wish I could make a men’s version and I will,” said Remy.

Finally, the product was shipped and scheduled to arrive on time for Friday’s fitting. This jacket was to be the main attraction. The show featuring the “Bad” Jacket was set to air on the MTV Network for the next three years. Lil’ Mama, the MTV Crew and Griffin were all anticipating the arrival of this look. After all Remy was the LA designer commissioned to give them EXACTLY what they needed. Will Griffin like it? Will it fit Lil’ Mama and the entire look of her wardrobe? Did he succeed? We have yet to see.

Young Talent-Written by MC Lyte

I see young talent wherever I go and there’s never really enough time to impart all the knowledge that I’d like to. So here I will state a bit of what lingers in my mind regarding young talent.

First and foremost is to acknowledge that the game isn’t easy. If it were easy not only would everyone do it,but everyone that did it would be great and not only that they would be extremely successful. It’s about staying power! If it doesn’t happen for you within a certain amount of time will you walk away? What if it’s right around the corner? What if you’re big break doesn’t have plans of arriving until times get radically difficult? Guess it won’t matter then because you would have given up by then, or maybe not.

This blog is to send a kind reminder to all those young talented artists…when you get in the business for the right reasons and you stay for the right reasons, you are bound to see success. Make your reason about the love for the art. As long as you are doing what you love you will never grow tired. You will never run out of steam but instead while your big break is waiting to happen you will grow and become even greater than you are now.

Stay humble
Stay focused
Stay true and do what God meant for you to do ….YOU

Thriller Inspired Jacket for Teairra Marie by Remy Hou [Exclusive!]

June 23, 2009 – Hard at work and just finishing his shopping for the Kanye
West jacket materials, Designer Remy Hou received a call from Joe
Exclusive (one of his stylists) and his assistant Jamarcus.

They called to mention singer Teairra Marie was doing a shoot tomorrow!!
That gave Remy about 24 hours to complete an entire jacket. Impossible,
right? Well he pulled it off! The theme for the photo shoot was the alter
ego’s of the artist – one of them being The King of Pop himself (R.I.P),
Michael Jackson.

Prior to the shoot everything was in order except for the iconic “V”
stripe, red-leather jacket. Proceeded by his talent and reputation Remy’s
style for unique designs and impressive craftsmanship came into play and
he received the call to fit Teairra with one of his hot custom looks.

“Joe was saying that I only make men’s attire but Jamarcus jumped in and
said I make female clothes too! So that is how I got the phone call and
the opportunity. They asked if I could do it and I said YES!” Remy said.

“So I came back home and made the black jacket that I saw Pharrell wear to
the BET Awards. I sent it to them and they told me that it wouldn’t work
because in Thriller MJ wore red pants and red jacket. Now I’m stuck, they
need the jacket by 12pm and I have no red jacket,” Remy said. “Tomorrow
I’m off to get the materials [for Teairra’s shoot], while the Kanye design
is burning strong in my head.”

June 24, 2009 –

Determined to give the client exactly what they need Remy was up till 2 am
that night but up early and at the fashion district by 10:30 am to find
the materials he needed.
“I walked and walked and couldn’t come up with the material. I was losing
hope. At 11:20 am, I finally found the red leather material, what a
relief!

After a quick lunch break with his driver/hairstylist Jase, Remy made it
home by 1:30 pm. He managed to get an extended 4 pm deadline but time was
still of the essence.

“I finally finished at 2:30 pm and they said for me to be at the location
by 4 pm sharp. I cleaned up the jacket, inspected it to make sure the
threads were clean and every piece was sewn right.”

“Got on the dreadful 405 North and was stuck at Culver City. To top things
off I was low on gas and had to exit and refuel. It’s 3:40 pm and I was
pushing it! All my hard work, dedication, time, thought, effort and sweat
seemed like it was going to go to waste.”

“I couldn’t back down now so I raced to my destination ‘cuz I knew even if
I’m late, at least I put the effort and if I didn’t miss this opportunity,
I would learn that I can overcome deadlines and deliver a product under
such short notice.”

With time ticking away deadline hour had arrived and Remy was still in
West Hollywood on Sunset. They were stalling time at the photo shoot
anticipating the final design of the jacket that would complete the artist
and the photographer’s vision of Teairra Marie’s alter Ego in the Thriller
look.

Remy finally arrived at 4:15 pm, just as they were about to depart.

“A stroke of luck blew my way by just a split second, till then I finally
learned that success was measured on how much you strive for excellence! I
handed the 2 jackets to Jamarcus and Joe was waving- success!!!”

Once the jackets were delivered Teairra and her crew checked out the works
of art and did their thing in front of the camera.

“After delivering the jackets I headed home. Took the freeway at 4:48 pm,
of course its rush hour, didn’t get home till 6 pm! That’s L.A. love for
ya.”

At 8:49 pm Remy received a text message from Joe Exclusive:
“U R THE MUTHAF*CKIN SHIT!!!!!! THESE JACKETS R MAJJJJOR!!!!”

Haute Couture-REMY HOU

Haute Couture-is made to order for a specific customer, and it is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques. It is a “protected name” that can be used only by firms that meet certain well-defined standards. The term is also used loosely to describe all high-fashion custom-fitted clothing, and it doesn’t mean just creation of new models of cloth wear, but it’s also a type of fine art, like any other ones, as sculpture, painting, music and more.

THE FUTURE OF FASHION

Remy Hou designing Jacket for Kanye West Nike Air Yeezy Shoes [Exclusive!]

☆ DESIGNING FOR KANYE WEST It’s not everyday that you get the opportunity of working with an A-lister like Kanye West and when you do its a great chance to show the world what you got! Or in this case, what you can design. When asked how this venture began Remy told Ar1as Ent. that, “This happened a year ago, August 31 of 2008 to be exact. I know a friend of mine who works with Kanye. So he told me that today hes going to meet him at Record Planet in Hollywood, CA.”

Remy didnt miss this opportunity and headed toward Hollywood with some of his best work so that Kanye could take a closer look. “Kanye was busy recording and didnt have time to come out nor did he let anyone in,” says Remy Hou. At the time Tpain was also in the studio along with his artist Sophia Fresh. “I believe they both just released a new hit which might be the one they were recording while i was there.” After a couple of minutes Remy’s friend came out of the studio and said, “Give me the jackets, I’ll show it to Kanye.” He took one of Remy’s custom jet-black leather jackets.

The friend returned and told Remy,”He loves it but he wants a smaller size,you got one?” Luckily there was a smaller size jacket in blue color which Kanye checked out and liked, except for the color. It is at this point that the collaboration is made and Remy gets the offer to design a jacket for Kanye West. As you finish reading Remy is on a mission purchasing the materials for his product and finishing up any needed designs and ideas.

The jacket will be inspired by Kanye’s line of Nike Air Yeezy shoes.

As for the completed jacket, it will be delivered to Kanye at one of the BET 2009 AWARDS after party’s.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting venture!
