The fact that Jeremy Scott was born in Kansas may explain the Oz-like sense of whimsy in his designs. His inspiration: S&M leather culture, mermaids and sea monsters, and even Gilette Venus razors, featuring wild designs incorporating trash bags, dollar bills, and one-legged pants. After living and showing in Paris for several years, Scott returned to the U.S. in 2002 to inject a shot of glittered good humor to the Los Angeles fashion scene. What inspired his 2006 collection !? : King Tut goes surfing. It says pretty much all !
