AZU BRAND
Bringing new meaning to the term "monkey business," AZU Brand has arrived on the scene to give fashion a new face - that of a cartoon monkey. Launched less than a year ago by three friends who detected a bit irony in their corporate desk jobs, the AZU team decided to explore some of the ways that monkeys can resemble human beings. By illustrating some of these concepts onto t-shirts, AZU is gaining speed as a fun and accessible t-shirt brand for consumers of all ages. On March 25th, you can catch their designs at the I Want Now fashion show event at Tenjune alongside some of the fashion industry's most promising new talents. I spoke with Cara Hall, one of the founding members of AZU, about the brand and why they decided to ditch their desk jobs and start monkeying around.
Adrienne Bailon, along with Joonbug.com, will be hosting I Want Now fashion show, an event to raise funds for Haiti relief on March 25, 2010. Presented by Chanel Omari, this glamorous night out will feature Spring and Summer Collections by Recession Denim, AZU Brand and Regine Basha. Under the shimmering spotlights of Tenjune, one of New York's hottest nightclubs, guests will be treated to a one hour open bar along with sweet treats from Baked By Melissa Cupcakes. Red carpet arrivals will begin at 8:00 p.m. and will be hosted by celebrity East Coast blogger, Micah Jesse. CariDee English of America's Next Top Model and DJ Ian Boyd will make special appearances at the event to celebrate the tireless efforts of this year's most notable up-and-coming designers.
