![]() Smith was his mother’s favorite singer, and when he was just 11 years old, he was taken to one of her shows in his hometown of Philadelphia, Mississippi. ![]() Stuart is 17 years younger than his country legend wife of over 20 years. ![]() What is the age difference between Marty Stuart and his wife? Are connie smith and Marty Stuart still together?ĭespite their 17 year age difference and Connie’s reluctance to marry for a fourth time, the couple tied the knot on J! The pair have lived happily ever after since! Marty Stuart is 63 years old (born September 30, 1958). Marty Stuart’s officially explanation of why there won’t be any new episodes in 2017 is because he wants to focus more on touring this year Marty released his latest album Way Out West produced by Mike Campbell on March 10th, 2017, and has been on tour ever since. I follow them closely on Facebook, because they post a lot of “work in progress” photos, and it is SO cool to see each boot come together in their workshop.It’s simple, the actual cowboys who roamed the West through dusty plains and parched deserts, sometimes on long cattle drives where the cows would stir up incredible dust, all wore handkerchiefs and scarves to protect their necks from sunburn where the cowboy hat wouldn’t shade, and to pull over their mouths and noses. The level of artistry and beautiful leather work blow me away. I think Miss Rodeo America, Emmylou Harris, Lindi Ortega and The Quebe Sisters would all look pretty darn good in Rockin’ B!Ī. Who’s the female version of Marty Stuart or Dwight Yoakam? I pick her! Those guys know how to wear flashy clothes, and I love them for it. I f you could design an outfit or piece for any celebrity who would it be?Ī. I offer very low minimums for wholesale buyers, and can be fairly flexible for each retailer’s individual needs. I would also like to see Rockin’ B expand into more brick & mortar stores – I have a great client base online, but it would be great to work with more retail locations. I take illustration/design commissions in my spare time, and I’m behind all of Rockin’ B Clothing’s graphic design and web design. I specialize in vintage-style pinup girls, realistic flora/fauna, as well as classic tattoo motifs and lettering. I was a painter and illustrator long before entering fashion design school, and I love painting on leather and fabric – boots, suitcases, jackets, bridles, helmets – you name it, I can paint it! I would love to grow my painting and embellishment business, especially doing custom cowboy boots. What are your goals for Rockin’ B Clothing in the next year?Ī. I’m doing a lot of research and development on shirts right now, which will be made in the USA, just like everything else I design. ![]() I’d really love to offer a wider selection of blouse options, including feminine western shirts – most of the cool retro shirts out there are not made to fit female curves most are not made in the US either, and that’s something I’d enjoy working on immensely. Is there something that you are currently not making that you would like to add to the Rockin’ B collection?Ī. More recent “wild west” historical costume and 20th century ranching culture are also huge influences on my aesthetic! I’m absolutely fascinated by cowgirls from around 1900 through the 1940s, like Tad Lucas – these gals were out busting broncs and competing in rodeo events (even bullriding) alongside men, in some cases doing a much better job of it. Ancient cultures fascinate me, and I draw a lot of inspiration from pre-Columbian culture in North and South America as well as ancient Chinese culture. My design development leans heavily on historical research, because I am a big history buff. I take a lot of my color inspiration from nature and the landscape around me. ![]() I’m very blessed to be living and working in a beautiful desert setting near Los Angeles, California. Ralph Lauren is also someone I admire greatly, as well as western designers Meredith Lockhart and Jan Faulkner.Ī. On the fashion side, I love the work of classic American designer Claire McCardell, she is THE creator of iconic American sportswear in my opinion. I’ve had the chance to see some of his work in museums, and the level of detail (and the amount of rhinestones) always blows me away. I take a lot of inspiration from Nudie’s early work, especially the show clothing he did for Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. I like to joke around that my spirit animals are Nudie Cohn and Miss Rodeo America. ![]()
