The Magic Marketplace tradeshow, a 4 day event held in Vegas, is where every Tom, Dick, and Harry involved in fashion goes to see what’s crack-a-lackin’ for the upcoming season.

While Fresh Dot was there, and all up in the thick of things, we ran into a few of the usual suspects, and saw a few things we thought were just plain suspect!
Here’s our countdown of 10 of the illest of them all. Hence the name - The Magic Show ILList.

#10: This Lamborghini (courtesy of Lexani) is ill
…because no matter how many times we’ve seen it, we just never get tired of a fast whips.

#9: Brothers in Kilts, illlllllll.
Spring 2008 Seattle designers plan to launch their version of an Andre Benjamin inspired denim kilt. They hope this catches on, and that dudes will be rolling out in these things like 3000. We think not.

#8: Nick Cannon is ill.
He’s that Nigga you love to hate but, Nicky manages to stay on prime time despite the consistent hater-ation…and you gotta love that!

#7: Helix Clothing is ill.
Geared Up. Inspired by their desire to help put a halt to the increasing violence in the City of Brotherly Love, these cats developed a line of tees that give a new face to some old issues.

#6: LL Cool J one of the first to use word “ill” in this context.
Showcasing his spring 2008 Todd Smith collection, he’s still a crowd pleaser. We couldn’t get close enough for an exclusive chat. And the longer we hung around, the more we felt like one of his groupies. That ain't fly, so we kept it moving. Yet and still, big ups to Uncle L, aka the G.O.A.T.

#5: An ill robot
Much respect to the guy who had the daunting task of wearing this metal getup. He did everything from slapping countless daps, taking countless photos, and dancing, to busting a freestyle flow. The Bot’s rap skillz were actually not that shabby. Way to earn your pay homey.

#4: Hustler Clothing is ill.
We don’t think there will be much to this line of threads, could be just thread, and if so, you know the guys who get their hands on the catalog won’t be able to order shit because, after some “light reading,” damn near every other page will be stuck together - nywhaimean?

#3: Liberace is kinda ill…
…at least Street Cred.
Streetwear thinks so. They pay homage to the King of Bling, in their new line of apparel benefiting the Liberace Scholarship Foundation . You might think they’re crazy but, think about it, if it wasn’t for Liberace’s insatiable appetite for getting his shine on, we might all still be in the era of modest gold chains and a measly quarter carat stud in just one ear.

#2: TITS are definitely ill.
Not too many men are allowed, or have the courage for that matter, to stroll around with a naked broad on their chest. So much respect to TITS (an acronym for Two In The Shirt), the tees that cater to the last of a dying breed.
Here’s to the heavy drinking, 24/7 ESPN watching, misogynist macho-sexual. Drink up now my friend because there’s no telling when your gonads will be ripped from your scrotum and you’re forced to fall in line with your beaten comrades.

#1: Miskeen Clothing's Butt Naked Models (covered in body paint) are ill.
Is it really necessary to explain why? Nope, didn’t think so.
