Closet Case Studies: Porcelain Black

If Joan Jett and Marilyn Manson made electro-dance-pop, it would sound and look like Porcelain Black. Or according to Black herself, “My music is like if Britney Spears and Marilyn Manson f—ed and had a kid,” which may be more accurate. The 25 year old Detroit native is championed by Lil Wayne, who appears on her single “This Is What Rock n’ Roll Looks Like” as well as in the video, and is best known for her split black-and-white hair and wild style, which often consists of leather, lace, sequins, studs, fur, and hats (often all at once).

We were lucky enough to be allowed access into Porcelain’s killer closet (a giant space fashioned out of clothing racks in her apartment) and got to see all her favorite items, including stage pieces from MarcoMarco, a Young Money varsity jacket, and a vintage furry blue Vivienne Westwood coat that I would cut her for. Watch the video below to find out what makes Porcelain Black’s wardrobe tick. Also, be sure to click through the gallery to see some photos of Porcelain during the shoot at her beautiful old Hollywood apartment.
