Runway Passport


Many have blazed through these experiences before me, and have seen this baffling life unfold before them. Through my own journeys so far, so many bizarre, amusing nuances have occurred towards which in my mind the final achievement is of my brand standing strong amongst these burning idols. People like Elie Saab, Marc Jacobs, Zac Posen, and Alexander Mcqueen – oh, Alexander Mcqueen.


Check out the first installment of : Behind the Scenes with Jeffrey Michael , of which a little preview is above.

One of the stops along the way to moving to New York City is that Jeffrey Michael will now be one of the writers for the luscious online fashion collective Runway Passport. Covering news and events in fashion all over the world, JMD will now partake by lending monthly a luscious article featuring behind the scenes of his journey to becoming an international designer. Each month three questions will be answered from readers around the world who tap into the amazing Runway Passport.


I met the amazing creator and editor of Runway Passport on my adventures in New York City, a fiesty, unique, fantastic woman named Liz Entin, and over several trips and two summers we have had many chats about up and coming projects, simulatenously covering massive ground stomping around in New York during the sunny summer days.

So check out Runway Passport online and their upcoming new platforms at the below links !!

Dionne Bromfield in custom JMD

The very talented Dionne Bromfield has just released her newest hit pop single ' Foolin' ' which croons out soft soulful melody and sultry vocals by the young fresh 16 year old. Jeffrey Michael was introduced to Dionne several months back via her fantastic stylist Melanie Thomas, and plotting was had to create a unique one of a kind JMD piece for her new promotions, as well as this specific music video.



The video features beautiful visuals in which three Dionne's play sassy characters discussing a man they are in love with who is not a good influence for them. Each girl is decked out in a fully fantastic outfit, with one of the main looks being the beautiful iradescent JMD black feather dress. Fitted, and full of hand attached iradescent purple, green, black feathers the dress fits perfectly into this soft and sexy look, matched with amazing heels, and dripping beautiful hair.


In the video the look receives front and center when the final scene of the video features Dionne on a see through curved architectural chair in a Los Angeles feeling mansion poolside. Dionne decides to give the boy a chance and also showcases the soft feathers as she does her signature cateye pose.

Dionne rose to fame as the protege to Amy Winehouse on Winehouse's self made record label Lioness Records. Dionne has hit the red carpet, the Brits, and been seen and heard all over London (even meeting up with lil Justin Bieber). Her mentor Whinehouse can be seen in photos with her, as well as felt in the guidance to Dionne's silky voice.








Check out also the amazing behind the scenes footage of the making of the video and also see more of this up and coming pop sensation on her website.

Jessie J in Jeffrey Michael Design




http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSZVYZTze74

A new exciting music video has debuted for the ferousciously conquering pop star Jessie J , featuring a new lightup one of a kind piece by Jeffrey Michael Design. Featured as one of the signature looks in the new video 'Nobody's Perfect' this piece is a huge new step forward for JMD.



This music video directed by Emil Nava and styled by famous celebrity stylist Anna Trevelyan, known for her work with Lady Gaga, used one of JMD's custom lightup costume pieces in one of its main scenes.

Commissioned by Anna for Jessie specifically, the piece was flown onsite to Bulgaria, where it was used as one of the key signature looks seen within the video on Jessie. The piece was conceived to showcase dark twisted sophistication, highlighting aspects from such references as MadMax, and Metropolis along with the signature Jeffrey Michael Design lightup features. The look was created using a combination between reclaimed old film reel, cassette reel, and several other layered films with overlaid lighting to be seen carrying offstage. The look came off as seamless, haunting, and perfectly executed thanks to Anna's amazing skill and vision for Jessie to be surrounded by beautiful mocking lips and trapped within the lighting.




" It's one of the most honest and raw songs on there... Every time I sing it I relive the moment that I wrote it about. I think it's important to expose your flaws in music as well as your positives. As it says, nobody's perfect. I'm definitely not!" - Jessie on her recent hit
