A while back, I posted pictures of Lupe Fiasco modeling for Darren “Dr”. Romanelli. It turns out that Lupe hired the LA based designer to be his “brand ambassador” and to help him take his sophomore album, The Cool, to a new market.
Romanelli created the red and gold satin letterman’s jacket that Lu wore at his CD release show in NYC and he’s developing a line of collectible toys based on The Cool’s characters.
The good doctor also whipped up these tour jackets in collaboration with London-based Maharishi. There are two different reversible jackets. Each one is hand embroidered and made of Jar quilted silk. They feature imagery inspired by characters created by Lupe for, The Cool, and are available for at Solebox for 450 Euros which is a little less than $700.

I would buy that jacket only if I could wear it inside out. I hope the jacket's interior is all pink, if not then I will have to pass
