What to know about Baby Phat

Baby Phat is the women's label Kimora Lee Simmons launched in 1999 as the counterpart to Russell Simmons' Phat Farm, defining Y2K glamour with low-rise denim, baby tees, fur-trimmed bombers and the silver cat logo. Kellwood bought parent Phat Fashions in 2004 and Simmons exited in 2010; she reacquired the brand in 2019 and, after capsules with Forever 21 and Puma, relaunched it independently in September 2023. The direct-to-consumer line now spans velour tracksuits, denim, bodycon dresses, sets and logo tees, with Simmons serving as chief executive.
