Move over Suri! Willow, daughter of Will and Jada Smith, has begun to rock the fashion world at the age of nine. The icon-in-the-making shares stylist team, Mariel Haenn and Rob Zangardi, with Rihanna, known for her edgy, rock and roll style.
Haenn tells Hollywoodlife.com, “We make an effort to give Willow her own style, so as not to be a mini-version of Rihanna, but Willow really knows what she likes and what she doesn’t like, and she’s vocal about it.” Willow can often be seen sporting some serious hardware, leopard prints, metallics, and military boots.
Recently seen at a red carpet event in Japan, Willow was rocking skulls, a crucifix necklace, and black
and pink lace up pants– an outfit that is sure to set her apart from your average 9-year-old!
Willow plans on teaming up with her twelve-year-old-brother and The Karate Kid star, Jaden, to start their own fashion line before they even hit their teen years. Haenn goes on to say, “With Rihanna, pretty soon after she came on the scene, you started seeing designers from Forever 21 to Gucci coming out with styles mimicking her look. We hope the same thing happens here, but I think the ultimate goal is for Willow and Jaden to have their own line.”
