RAXXY exhibition

FESTIVAL MODE ET CULTURE SINO-FRANCAIS

Raxxy’s designer William Shen has presented its new Couture collection in Paris through an installation attracting numerous visitors to capture memories.

When entering the Cultural Center of China, the guests discovered an exhibition mixing the craftmanship of fashion and art. 

William Shen, createur de la marque Raxxy a présenté sa nouvelle collection Couture au travers d’une installation à Paris, invitant de nombreux visiteurs à immortaliser ce moment.

Inheriting traditional Chinese culture, Raxxy is combining art and innovative knowledge.

This modern and geometrical expression is deeply inspired by Chinese culture. The puffer garments are worked around the soaring spirit of China and its National Day celebration, fireworks and majestic dragons ascend and dance together, blending into a traditional color palette. The use of warm and pastel colors such as lotus pink, sky and gemstone blue and autumn fragrance yellow merge with the cold and oriental spirit beneath the stark Chinese winter. 

Raxxy holds an exclusive patent for its 3D transformation process, leading to a rich inspiration. It weaves together romantic and sensuous expressions, deconstructing the conventional silhouette of puffer jackets to introduce a new concept of “sequential fashion.” It reflects the relationship between the brand’s core and the free-spirited lifestyle of contemporary youth.

Summer Walker’s Atlanta Proclamation

SUMMER WALKER RECEIVES PROCLAMATION FROM ATLANTA FOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMMUNITY.

Atlanta Officially Crowns September 22nd Summer Walker Day.

•Announces Exclusive Vinyl For Acclaimed 2018 Debut Mixtape Last Day of Summer.

On September 21st, the City of Atlanta and the Mayor’s Office of Film, Entertainment & Nightlife presented a proclamation to Summer Walker (LVRN/Interscope Records) for her contributions to the community and one of Atlanta’s greatest success stories by officially proclaiming the Last Day of Summer, September 22nd, as Summer Walker Day in the City of Atlanta. Councilmember Andrea Boone and AMOFEN Directors Cardellia Hunter and Phillana Williams were in attendance for the presentation.

With the help of Social Xurrency, the platinum-selling singer’s altruism continues Friday, as Walker’s Last Day of Summer Small Business Activation will help small businesses within the Atlanta community. All participating businesses will be available at buyblackwomensshit.com in hopes of assisting hard-working women to succeed. 

In addition, with Friday scientifically serving as the last day of summer, Summer will release an exclusive cobalt blue vinyl for her acclaimed 2018 debut mixtape, Last Day of Summer. Certified gold by the RIAA, Last Day of Summer spawned her 5X-platinum single, “Girls Need Love,” and its lauded remix featuring Drake. “Girls Need Love (Remix)” soared to No. 2 on the Hot R&B and entered the top 40 of the Hot 100. Last year, Summer released the revamped version of Last Day of Summer (Sped-Up) after the viral explosion of her sped-up single “Karma,” which created spikes in her streams. 

The millions of streams it generated pushed “Karma” to platinum status, and its success sparked a full revamp of her Last Day of Summer as an entire sped-up album, Last Day of Summer (Sped Up). The project is the first sped-up album from a major recording artist and is a result of the singer listening to her devoted fanbase, who found pleasure in revisiting the classic album in a reimagined way.
