Right on the heels of the Colette x Married to The Mob x Reebok Freestyle collabo, the Most Official Bitches have dropped hints of what’s to come for their Summer 2008 collection. In addition to the usual tongue in cheek slogan emblazoned across the chest of ladies from Paris to NY, from the classic “My Girls Smoke Mad Marijuana…” to the new “Let’s Talk Shit” slogan (see below), queen bee/designer Leah McSweeney takes her “most official” status a step further with a “Men are the New Women” beach blanket, fashioned after the popular tee. Details on the drop coming soon.
