Daymond John Brings FUBU Back
This year marks the 25th anniversary of FUBU pioneering the integration of fashion with hip-hop culture, multimedia and entertainment. The urban apparel line founded by CEO Daymond John was synonymous with T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, hats, footwear and denim with the conjoined "FB" in bold, all caps font stitched on the fabric.
Entertainers like LL Cool J, Mary J. Blige, TLC, P. Diddy and Beyonce all wore FUBU to award shows, in music videos and in numerous print and television ads. At its pinnacle, FUBU had netted $350 million in sales through 5,000 retail stores: eventually grossing more than $6 billion globally.
An acronym that stands for "For Us By Us," FUBU was created to specifically target young African-American consumers. John, who started the operation with his childhood friends Keith Perrin, J. Alexander Martin and Carl Brown, created the clothing as a response to high-profile fashion brands expressing they didn't want to market their collections to ethnic audiences.
Lorraine Kelly unveils her first-ever clothing range designed for 50-plus women who 'are in their prime and want to look fashionable
She's the glamorous daytime TV presenter with a serious passion for fashion.
And now, Lorraine Kelly has channeled her styling expertise into designing her own range.
Lorraine’s first collection for JD Williams is targeted at the 50-plus female and comes on the back of research by the brand that revealed just 20 per cent of mature women feel well catered for on the high street.

Speaking about her new range, which she models herself, Lorraine told MailOnline: 'Designing a fashion collection has always been a dream, and I am delighted to have achieved that with JD Williams.
'I have been involved every step along the way and seeing the final outcome has been incredibly exciting. The best part will be seeing women - like me - dressed in products from my line in the New Year, and fingers crossed feeling fabulous inside and out.'
