The Brand

High End Junkie (HEJ) - Is a trending street wear brand making noise out of Chicago.

This project is the brainchild of Q. Hudson, who does not consider herself a fashion designer, but merely a visual artist using a new canvas. The brand officially launched in 2013, and features 1:1 custom hand-painted apparel & accessories.

In the "White Lines" collection, pieces are marked in bold fonts with verbiage such as "Junkie," "Addicted to Luxury," "Creme de la Creme," and "Handcrafted"

JUNKIE: A person with an insatiable craving for something.

"The word play behind the brand name is not meant in a derogatory way at all. It's our goal to encourage people to focus on GOOD ADDICTIONS. Having an addiction to the finer things in life should push you to be the best, and set yourself up to be in a position to attain and maintain the lifestyle you desire"

- Q.Hudson

HEJ is still exclusively available online and through local pop-up events. The brand has recently experienced record growth, and more international support due to it's heavy online presence and celebrities such as Nick Cannon, Chris Brown and Dej Loaf being spotted in pieces from the collection.
