  • Famed fashion designer Jeff Hamilton sat down for his first-ever VladTV interview, where he detailed his life story, including living in France from ages 10 to 24 and later moving to the U.S. with just $6,000. From there, Jeff detailed getting a job at Guess, where he created a men’s jeans line, and he spoke about being the creator of the iconic Guess jeans overalls for men. After leaving Guess, Jeff started his own brand, which consisted of him designing custom leather jackets for NBA players.

    I’m not into designer clothes anymore, BUT, I will buy a pair of guess jeans with the triangle on the pocket. My all time favorite 👍🏿

    I remember the blue guess with the brown leather on the back. I was 12 years old. A drug dealer had a pair in the back of his pickup truck. I stole them and they were huge on me but I didn't care. I took them home and I took a needle and thread and hand stitched them along the seam so they will fit. I can only imagine how stupid I looked from the outside, but damn I felt good. The guy I stole the pants from saw me in the pants and asked me did I take those pants from his truck. Of course I lied. He then told me "ok, look little man you don't ever have to steal. If you ever want something from me just ask" I said ok and went home to never wear those pants again. Nobody on the block knew this guy sold drugs because he stayed to himself. I asked to cut his grass shortly after that and he paid me $50. I wound up doing odd jobs for him like cutting grass going to the store etc....
