What Happens When Butch Diva and Robin Clare Team Up?!

Hailing from Jamaica, Sydney based artist, Robin Clare’s work is inspired by dancehall culture and the brilliant aesthetics of Jamaican party promotions. Her work explores the scope of imagery used throughout the decades since Jamaican music hit the world's stage with references to outrageous party names, dance techniques and other elements of popular culture that have emerged from the scene. She has exhibited across Europe, North America and Sydney and works at the edge of the map between contemporary art and graphic design and produces zines, album art, fabric patterns and illustrations alongside her painting practice. www.robinclare.com

The Brooklyn-based fashion haus, founded in 2002, creates daring, empowering, show-stopping custom and ready-to-wear styles. BUTCH DIVA, also known as "Spandex and Chaos", sets leading trends and has branded a name that embodies today's leading females. "Butch" expresses androgyny with a masculine aggression, and "Diva" is still sexy, feminine, and in control. Founder Tiffany Rhodes joined the two concepts and stood confident behind her vision. The luxury spandex based company represents everything that is feminine & fun, utilizing hand-selected graphic prints that encourage women to express their individuality and embrace their curves! Over the years, BUTCH DIVA has been featured on Dancehall Queen Patra, Nicki Minaj, Lil Kim, K. Michelle, Kat Graham and more!
