Stevie Wonder's 21-year-old son Kailand Morris has made a name for himself in the fashion industry, working closely with Kanye West and designing for luxury labels. Now he's launching his own brand, with dreams of becoming 'the youngest Black billionaire.'
and a young creative who orbits the worlds of fashion, music, and fine art — it’s clear that these moments are only the beginning, his sights set even higher with his new label, House of K.O.M.
But Morris was “never going to stop at walking fashion shows.” That was not the brand he had envisioned for himself. Instead of casual conversations with models behind the curtain, he wanted to understand and conquer it all. “I guess I was gaining a more personal one-on-one experience with the designers,” he says now. “Seeing how they operate.”
Their first connection came through a stroke of fate. Morris recounts laying on his couch in his Calabasas home when his friend burst through the front door. “Yo, you won’t believe what just happened,” the friend shouted. “I met Ye! He wants to come buy your shirt right now.” The shirt in question, a sample collaboration between Morris and Sean Koons, son of famed artist Jeff Koons, had been loaned to his friend that afternoon for a quick trip to the market for a toothbrush.
A member of Ye’s security team came to buy the shirt, followed by radio silence. Morris waited. Did this really just happen?
