NIMANY and Heidi Klum

Which supermodel and fashion wonderwoman was caught getting all steamy over a handmade NIMANY tee, at an exclusive Victoria's Secret fashion show last week? HEIDI KLUM. Apparently, the lusty lingerie model was agog when she met Nima Behnoud and clocked his handmade t-shirt, gushing: "Wow! That's hot! Who makes these?"

The incredibly flattering compliment is pretty much the cherry on the cake. Not only is Heidi the belle of the fashion world but she's also a judge and the executive producer of "Project Runway", a new reality TV series, about fashion designers, currently being broadcast across the US.

Klum isn't the only one impressed by the works of NIMANY either. Tuned into the styles of the street, the label has moved from bohemian chic and into Middle Eastern icons, motifs and slogans just as the fashunista crew flutter away from Indian influences and flock towards all Southwest Asia garb. This is proof positive that NIMANY is well and truly ahead of the curve and down with the street, natch.
