As a fashion and music icon since the early 90s, Stefani first slayed in the Cali-based ska-punk band No Doubt before embarking on an insanely successful solo career in which she dropped hit after hit after hit, playing a huge role in spearheading the pop sound of the mid 2000s.
Since then she’s dipped into seemingly everything, glowing on the reality television singing competition The Voice, producing an animated series about herself and the Harajuku Girls, and branching out into several fashion-related ventures. Her main enterprise, the L.A.M.B. (Love. Angel. Music. Baby) apparel line, which takes influence from Guatemalan, Japanese, and Jamaican styles, was met with critical acclaim when it debuted at fashion weeks nearly a decade ago.
Now L.A.M.B. is back, coming in hot with another collaboration with the most trusted snowboarding company in the world, our friends over at Burton. The collaboration, which includes some of the same punk rock and Japanese print inspiration as Stefani’s earlier work, coincided with her time writing new songs, and an equal level of creativity manifests in the designs:
Head over to Burton to check out the newly minted L.A.M.B. x Burton range, and scroll down further for some of the highlights from Stefani’s long and prosperous career as one of pop music’s reigning queens:
