DIRTY HAS A THING FOR TWINS! THIS TIME, WE RENDEZVOUS WITH TWO TWENTY-YEAR-OLD, SELF-TAUGHT AMERICAN ACCESSORY DESIGNERS FROM MINNESOTA, BETTER KNOWN AS COCO AND BREEZY. ROCKING SIX INCH PLATFORMS AND NEON ACCENTS, THE CONFIDENT DUO TURNED HEADS AS THEY GAVE US A SNEAK PEEK AT THEIR UPCOMING SUNGLASSES COLLECTION RAINY DAYS.
LIKE SEASONED CELEBRITIES, COCO AND BREEZY EFFORTLESSLY WORK THE CAMERA FOR THEIR CLOSEUP IN FRONT OF THE MUSÉE GALLIERA (MUSEUM OF FASHION). IT’S NO SURPRISE THE THE SISTERS HAVE TAKEN NYC BY STORM SINCE THEIR ARRIVAL TO THE FASHION CAPITAL ONLY A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO (IT SEEMS THE CITY STREETS ATTRACT ATTENTION FOR THE GIRLS, AS THEY QUICKLY BECOME THE MUSE FOR MANY PHOTOGRAPHERS AND DESIGNERS AROUND THE WORLD.) THEIR SHADES HAVE SHIELDED THE FACES OF MANY CELEBRITIES—FROM THE LIKES OF POP ICONS LIKE BEYONCÉ, KELLY OSBOURNE, NICKI MINAJ AND CIARA,TO TENNIS PRODIGY SERENA WILLIAMS. THEY’VE BEEN FEATURED IN VOGUE, ELLE, VIBE, FADER, W, PAPER, and THE NEW YORK TIMES.
OUR OUTING WITH COCO & BREEZY CULMINATED IN AN INTERVIEW WHERE WE BROKE BAGUETTES, SAT DOWN FOR A GLASS OF WINE AND UPLIFTING CONVERSATION.
DIRTY: SO, LET’S START OFF WITH THE USUAL QUESTIONS: WHERE ARE YOU LADIES FROM?
BREEZY: We’re originally from Minnesota — the suburbs in Minnesota. It’s a non-fashion state, and we’re definitely outsiders from where we’re from. Everybody wears jeans and t-shirts, and that’s actually what made us create sunglasses. People used to stare at us, laugh at us… No one understood our style, and when we created our eyewear collection, it was only for ourselves. We created it so we could block ourselves away from the world.
D: IS IT SUNNY IN MINNESOTA?
B: It’s mostly snow.
C: Yeah, lots of snow and it’s very cold.
B: But we didn’t use [our eyewear] for the sun, we used them for more like… a shade.
C: But it was a shade to block people who stared at us.
B: We had no idea why people were staring.
