If you were reading M.I.S.S. back in March, then you’re familiar with our “Women Making History” feature where we interview talented ladies who are paving paths and doing great things. We know that women make history throughout the year so we decided to make this an ongoing feature to highlight ladies that work hard behind the scenes. Don’t worry, we’ll have a different project for you next March to honor Women’s History Month.

This week, we are featuring Mel from Borougbred, a ladies’ streetwear line.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mel a few years back at the MAGIC tradeshow. I loved her line from the moment I heard the name, BoroughBred, and she makes some of the best ladies’ graphic tees around. A true NYer at heart, her love of being “borough bred” shines through in all of her work. Take a look and learn . . .

Check out pics of her tees and beautiful son after the jump . . .

March is Women’s History Month and you know M.I.S.S. Crew would not let this one slide without a little something special. We’re excited to announce that throughout the month of March we will be featuring ladies who are “making history” in their respective fields including fashion, design, music, art, media and much more. Tune in everyday to see who’s making history. And don’t forget about all the women who came before us who made everything we have possible.
