Born in Brooklyn, New York, 34-year-old Keith Michael is a freelance designer currently creating his own line of clothing. Keith's aesthetic of urban sophistication rings a fresh point of view to modern American design. The focus: reinterpreting true cosmopolitan style for a new generation. Keith draws inspiration from a background in fashion photography. His work has been published in W, Elle, GQ and Blackbook. It was after working alongside top-tier designers that the multi-talented Michael was motivated to strike out on his own and develop his distinctive and tightly tailored style. Keith's fashion forward men's clothing is already found in exclusive boutiques in Los Angeles and Manhattan and he looks ahead to an expanded modern luxury and lifestyle brand. His clean, unfettered clothes have been winning accolades from buyers and critics alike, which are accolades Keith continues to build upon. Most recently, Sportswear International has nominated him as "Best Newcomer of the Year" and in an article entitled "Genius News," Andrea Cusick of Nylon Magazine described Keith's designs as "natural, organic and lovingly hand finished." He currently resides in Brooklyn, New York
