And her name is Mayhem.
If you’ve been keeping up in the little human world, you’ve probably heard of the 4-year-old mini designer, Mayhem, who recreates her favorite dresses from award shows, movies, and the wild world of her own imagination out of, wait for it, PAPER! She’s already collaborated with Vogue to recreate the best looks from last year’s Met Gala, Rihanna gave her a shout out on Instagram, and now, she’s designing a line with J. Crew. Has she even finished preschool yet?
Angie Keiser, Mayhem’s mom and paper dress assistant designer, announced the collaboration on their blog, Fashion By Mayhem, in sheer disbelief.
“I remember reading the email and being certain it was a set up,” Angie shared on her blog. “As in, it’s probably some kind of wicked virus that if I reply to it, my laptop will explode or at the very least melt before my eyes.”
Jenna Lyons, J. Crew’s Executive Creative Director, reached out to Angie directly to ask if Mayhem wanted to design a kid’s collection for J. Crew’s “Crewcuts” line. After confirming the request was real, they were off to NYC and the rest is now going to be an awesome kid’s collection releasing Summer 2015.
