Style Icon Rita Ora Wears Avit’s New Bee Beanie

Posted on November 28, 2012 by hannah

Whilst at K Koke’s music video ‘Lay Down Your Weapons’ I met Rita Ora and gave her a few pieces from the Avit clothing range.

Rita was immediately drawn to the beanie hats.  She chose the royal blue Avit Bee Beanie and Grime Scene Hoodie.  She was really sweet thanking me and giving a thumbs up as she stepped into her taxi.

The following day Rita wore the Avit Bee Beanie to Kiss FM where she had a radio interview.

Then later on that evening Rita tweeted a photo of her with her mum whilst they watched a movie, and she was still wearing the hat.

That’s fantastic feedback from an amazing urban fashion icon. Let’s Avit!!

The new Avit Bee Beanie hat is £15 which includes P&P from our online shop.  For 1 week only it’s just £10.  Also available in black.  To order this product go to the headgear section on our shop or click here Avit Bee Beanie

With thanks, stay busy! #AvitBee

K Koke Feat. Rita Ora “Lay Down Your Weapons” Video Shoot

Posted on November 26, 2012 by hannah

On Sunday 18th November Avit went to K Koke’s video shoot for ‘Lay Your Weapons down’ featuring fellow Roc Nation signee Rita Ora.

It was shot in a secret location in South West London and not knowing the title of the track on arrival, the security seemed pretty tight, later to find out the policemen and prison guards were actors!  phew!

Many of the USG team had parts to play in the video which was mainly shot in a prison cell.  We also spotted Ard Adz from South London who had his own part in the video.

We brought a couple of our new beanies for the guys and a special blue one for Rita Ora.  K Koke is the first to wear this Avit Bee Beanie hat (above).  Likewise Squingy (below) has the new double bobble Avit hat which he promises to wear in his next video Fire.

Clement Marfo At The MOBO Tour 2012

Posted on March 26, 2012 by Avit

We’re loving Clement Marfo + The Frontline here at Avit Clothing. After meeting the lovely guys and one girl (Stacey) a few times and seeing their live shows we knew that this band are set for big things this year. With Clement Marfo seen sporting his Avit snapback a few times, we were delighted to provide the rapper of the group with some more clothes for the MOBO Tour…

Check out the MOBO Tour diary where you can see him wearing the Adaggio black and white T-shirt, Avit black & red hoodie, and of course the black and red snapback.

Their single Mayhem is out now to buy on iTunes click here

Shireen’s Journey Out & About Part 2

Posted on March 13, 2012 by Avit

About a month ago I was at at the Knew Knowledge event 1st Birthday where I saw rapper No Lay. As one of the hardest MC’s out there I decided to give her some clothes I thought she would rock well, including the Grime Scene T-shirt and matching yellow and black snapback to go with it. She loved the clothes and was seen wearing both the items for the Link-Up TV Behind Barz video which then was picked to go on The Source Magazine’s top 5 video’s of the week, generating thousands of views. Check out the picture below…

I then bumped into the lovely Emeli Sande in the evening strolling around Shoreditch, who still recognised me from when I interviewed her last August and gave her an Avit ‘I Love Me’ top. She was nice enough to stop for a quick chat and a picture.

I’ve also spotted some pictures around the internet of Clement Marfo wearing the red and black snapback. One of the pictures was taken at BBC Radio 1 with Cher Lloyd and Nihal.

The other was was taken during a guest presenting spot for MTV Base with himself and and lead singer of Clement Marfo + The Frontline, Kojo.

Link Up TV: Behind Barz – No Lay FreeStyle

Posted on March 11, 2012 by hannah

No Lay’s latest video up on You Tube was her freestyle for Link Up TV’s Behind Bars where she is wearing Avit’s Grime Scene T-shirt and Snap Back. The Source magazine put it in their top 5 video’s and the views we’re up in the 20,000′s in it’s first week! Rightly so, in fact we think it probably deserved more, watch it yourself and hear for yourself…


Avit was first introduced to No Lay at Bashy’s Blackboys video shoot in 2008 where we were wowed by her talents. She in our opinion the most underrated female MC’s in the UK, perhaps because she has never wanted to be labeled as a female MC, but as an MC in an equal playing field as any male MC in the scene.

In this Behind Bars video No Lay really goes in, showing us the realness she can deliver, spitting her heart out! And the singing just as strong! The thing with No Lay is she is consistent and you will always hear something new from her. I’m sure this girl writes lyrics in her sleep effortlessly.

If you don’t know get to know ASAP!!! And make sure you follow @NO_LAY on Twitter.
