i-D Meets: The Clermont Twins

i-D meets Shannon and Shannade Clermont – better known as The Clermont Twins – the LA-based modern-day It-girls that have taken the fashion world by storm with their larger-than-life-looks. Together, they discuss how they developed their distinct sense of style, from wearing wedding dresses to prom night to becoming front-row fixtures at fashion shows such as Rick Owens and GCDS. Brimming with bolshiness and confidence, the twins unpack what it takes to be “that b***”, and how they persevere through the critiques they face. With refreshing frankness, they share the challenges they’ve experienced in navigating the industry as Black women, exploring the beauty of being misunderstood, and their impact on reframing perceptions of cosmetic surgeries and procedures. 00:00 - 00:38 - Intro 00:39 - 01:40 - Growing up 01:41 - 02:12 - Motivation 02:13 - 02:25 - We invented ‘that bitch’ 02:26 - 02:56 - Being yourself 02:57 - 03:30 - Being a black woman in the industry 03:31 - 04:35 - Staying true to yourself 04:36 - 05:04 - Being hot 05:31 - 05:55 - Being open about surgery 05:56 - 06:22 - Inspiration 06:23 - 06:48 - What would you say to your 12-year-old self?
