Big-O x Taz Arnold = TI$A Phenomenon
by Eugene Kan, August 13, 2008
Japanese designer Big-O of swagger and Phenomenon fame has linked up with multi-talented MCM/pastelle designer and music producer Taz Arnold in a new collaborative brand titled TI$A Phenomenon. The subsequent final product is an eclectic mix of stylings in which many of the styles include leather products such as jackets and briefcases. The products are a true reflection of the stylistic approach of both Big-O and Taz Arnold who both embody a flamboyant fashion sense.

ANGELFACE3000…YOUR RIGHT THE MAGIC IS IN THE DESIGN… “BIG- O’S” DESIGN…DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO CREATED WHAT PIECE’S IN THESE PHOTOS OR DO YOU THINK THAT IT WAS A TOTAL T.I.S.A DESIGN? BECAUSE ITS NOT! THE ONLY CLOTHING THAT TAZ IS REPPIN (NOT DESIGNING) IS MCM, AND THE REST OF THE OUTFIT’S ARE A DESIGN BY THE PHENOMENON LINE! CREATED EXCLUSIVELY BY BIG O FOR THE 08 FALL/WINTER COLLECTION. IF YOU WERENT SO BUSY HATING ON MY OPINION IN THIS OPEN MESSAGE BOARD AND YOUR SUCH A FAN OF TAZ’S THEN YOU WOULD KNOW SOME BACK GROUND INFO ON WHO DESIGNED WHAT! IM NOT HATING ON TAZ B/C I THINK HE IS A FASHION ICON BUT NOT A FASHION DESIGNER! LET ME SCHOOL YOU ON SOMETHING ANGELHEAD.. MCM IS NOT TAZ’S LINE BTW. YOU SEE FASHION PASSES STYLE REMAINS! AND I KNOW MY SH*T ….MY POINT IS… YOUR NOT ON POINT! STEP YOUR GAME UP BEFORE YOU COMMENT ON OTHERS OPINIONS…AS FOR TAZ DESIGNING FOR KANYE’S WEAK PASTELLE LINE!

Taz has been a Los Angeles Fashion Icon for two decades, his influence on L.A hip hop was gripping from 87-97. He’s evolved from a gentlemen wearing tweed Polo pants, and classic hand knit sweaters. Too a cubist who defines couture. I’m glad that the world is taking notice……
Does anyone know what T.I.$.A. stands for???
I heard all of these MCM joints are only gonna be released in Japan.
Taz also has a site.. http://www.tisavision.tv where you can get some of these pieces.
TAZ has SUPREME STYLE!!! He is a true visionary.. To the (ANUNAKI) comment: I believe the MAGIC in these pieces are the DESIGN. Taz is the designer of this MCM collection. Without him there would be no line. Oh & he also designs for Kanye’s line. Now that’s HOT! Hatter$ are so played out in the 08′! I LOVE TAZ!! Keep bringing that NEW NEW FRESH SHIT! Peace!
I’d say he was 50/50 sometimes he looks seriously cool, then other times he looks like a complete and utter dick.
DOPE!……BUT I THINK BIG O PUTS THE TOUCH ON THIS LINE BECAUSE WITHOUT THE JAPANESE PHENOMENON CUT & SEW TAZ WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO PULL IT OFF ON HIS OWN PERIOD
OOoooooooH snap!!!!!!! MCM for the 2008!! What magazine are these shots from? Style is sick!
Taz Arnold is the freshest dude for real! Nobody can fu%k wit dude! Serious!
Really WHERE DO I GET THAT BLUE MCM MOTORCYCLE JACKET?
The $TYLE is CRAZYYYYY!!! The MCM pieces are AMAZING!!! The blue motorcycle jacket!!! Where do I get it?!? I’ve been a fan of Taz for a few years and he has ALWAYS pushed the limits of fashion. (even before it was in fashion to be in fashion) Taz is a true FASHION ICON. PURE GENIUS!
Hahaha! ^^^^^ Jive Turkey! I ain’t heard that in a long time.
