WHO IS NKEM?

Hello world!

I’m excited to introduce you to Loic Nkem Vuarnoz, a brand focused on being authentically brave and outstanding. FUCK PERFECTION! What we value is honesty, responsibility, sustainability, diversity. The new punk is self love. Loving one another. Transactions don’t always have to be monetary. You never know what the next person can offer you.

I’m tired of being known as a fuck-up. A whore. A faggot. I’m not any of those things, though my identity is part of my journey and plays central role in my art, fashion and music. I am proud to be a biracial queer artist. What I have to say has substance. Not every artist has that ;)

I speak to people who ever felt manipulated, betrayed, lost or alone. I speak for the people who no one else will speak for. My mental health journey has been miraculously uphill ever since I decided to go clean. Drugs are cool until they’re not. So don’t come up to me at a party offering coke, you’re automatically an enemy to me. I do have my addictions however. Cigarettes are just too good. Lmao sorry kids but I am not your role model. I’m just an example of what can happen when you never give up.

I should’ve been dead by now, but God has stayed protecting me. It has nothing to do with luck but actual belief in the system, that they want what is best for you. Well….they are also selfish, as we all are. But I’m not here to break the system. I’m here to help.

My artworks speak for themselves. My fashion speaks for itself. My music maybe still needs some work but I know I’m a superstar. It’s fact.

Whenever I do creative direction for a photoshoot, i feel the model becoming confident as FUCK. The energy they give off when they wear what I made…it’s truly transformative. SO…you would need to buy a piece to actually get it :)
