They say that if you make it five years in this business, then you have beat the odds. Now double down on the notion and think about the fashion industry, which is always changing with different trends. With all of this in mind, let me introduce you to designer Jeff Clayton and his clothing brand RichWierdo, an example of what ten years of hard work and creativity looks like.
Through the years, the RichWierdo brand has been worn by iconic celebrities like Sean “Diddy” Combs, Ludacris and T.I. It’s also been a regular wardrobe choice for host on BET’s 106 & Park.
Jeff draws the inspiration for his brand from “music and wildlife…like National Geographic,” which helped “[lay] the pavement,” as he put it. Jeff sees that what’s next for his line is to be in department stores and gaining more territory in the fashion world. Leaning on his faith for all the success he has had over the last 10 years, Jeff believes that “God has blessed my mind to be timeless when it comes to creativity,” including how he started all of this from scratch.
Jeff is fully immersed in the business of style and image. How, you might ask? He’s also been a barber for over 14 years, and is the owner of Blendz total grooming shop in South Plainfield, New Jersey. You can check out more of this trendy designer’s line that caters to both men and women via RichWierdo or (quite possibly) on your favorite celebrity.
