PLEASE GIRLS

Brianna Lance

In our last issue, we’ve been talking with Alix Brown about this all-women DJ collective dedicated to showcasing female artists called « Les Filles ». It’s no surprise that Brianna Lance, is one of them ! To celebrate the release of her first solo record Sensitive Men out on May 9th, she asked 8 girls from Dree Hemingway  to Niki Takesh to make a video for each song based on the way they would experience the music alone. We met her in her lovely appartement located in the East Village in New York City and talked about her style and inspirations.

What Do you do?

This is my least favorite question to answer, because it’s a bit of a long list.  I make music, I paint, I do creative direction and consulting for brands, I DJ and I edit for a magazine. I basically try anything people want me to do. 

Where do you live?

I live in the East Village in New York City. 

Your fashion icons?

They change all the time ! Lately I have been obsessed with period films. This film “Cousin Rachel” has some incredible hair styles in it, and I rewatched “Funny Girl” recently and there is some incredible style in that film. I think to make things modern you just mix and match all the pleasant images you have in your head. That makes you not a copy but someone unique. 

Your favorite color?

I have a few. I love sea foam green, coral and lavender. 

Your style, night or day?

I think for day it’s normally jeans and whatever I can sit and run around in, and for nighttime it’s basically the same unless I have some sort of event I have to look presentable for, then maybe it’s a suit. 

Three words or a short sentence to describe your style.

I think it’s half little boy/half someone who went into a dressing up box. 

You can’t leave your home without…

Lip balm, and Nicorette (I quit smoking but I’m really addicted to chewinggum now). 

Paper or web addict?

Web for sure. I worked at a sustainable company for so long that I try not to buy anything I will throw away quickly. I only buy paper that I am going to keep.
