Dani (right): “The shirt’s from Tilly’s in the mall. I love tank tops because you can dress them up or dress them down. The pants are from this website call Boohoo, which is a targeted ad that got me. Freaking Facebook. But they didn’t come with any bottoms, so I make-shifted some Spanx.”

Kris (left): “The sequin pants I found on Poshmark. The Iron Maiden tee was from Uptown Cheapskate in Hulen. I love collecting band tees and stuff. The boots are Nasty Gal boots, which I got thanks to a targeted ad. They get me every time.”

Danni (right): “The jacket was from Ross, and the dress was from Forever 21. I like that they went together because there are these silver clasps down the middle of the white dress, and then there are silver studs and button on the jacket. The boots were also from Forever 21, which I got a long time ago. I liked that there was a similar theme going on with the chunkiness of the boots and the jacket, and how it’s cropped and the dress being jean as well.”

Kris (left): “The shoes and sequin romper I got at consignment stores. The shoes I got at Buffalo Exchange, and the jacket I found at Forever 21. It was just a white with the red embroidered lips on it. I got the patch and hand-painted Rolling Stones because when I saw it, it just made me think of the Rolling Stones.”

Danni (right): “It’s a leotard with a skirt that I got from Charlotte Russe. And the shoes are from Rue 21 from years ago. They have some weird shoes sometimes, and I remember seeing those silver ones and being like, ‘I’m going to use these for something.’ So all of this stuff was just little pieces mixed and matched from different stores in the mall.”

Kris (left): “The pants I got from an Australian clothing brand, so it took 20 days to get here. I have a pair in white, as well. The top I got from Uptown Cheapskate, which there’s several throughout the metroplex, and I’ll hit up all of them. The glittery boots are from Steve Madden. My mom got them for me for Christmas, and the heel was too high. I took them to the shoe cobbler and had him cut down the heel.”

You can see Danni James and Kris Williams — the best friends who make up two-thirds of soon-to-be Billboard-cracking PRIZM (you heard it here first, y’all), folk duo Danni and Kris, and Fleetwood Mac tribute band Little Lies — just about anywhere in Fort Worth. On stage, on billboards, in magazine advertisements, and in some of the town’s best coffee shops, bars, and restaurants. They, whether meaning to or not, have become two of the faces of the emerging Fort Worth funk — a depiction of the city’s changing, younger demographic who are culturally attuned.
Their most recent album, All Night, is a product of their ’80s-influenced trio PRIZM, which they formed with local producer Geoff Rockwell. The album comes after the duo’s most productive year in 2019, which came to a screeching halt thanks to the cancellation of live shows.
“It was nice to have such a booming, awesome, positive, fun year in 2019 before the hardship of this year,” James says. “But having all that we did last year roll over into this year really helped us out. It gave us the momentum we needed.”
The album serves as pure electronic nostalgia that combines the catchy melodies of Bonnie Tyler with the infectious beats of Kraftwerk. The trio hit the studio in the midst of COVID-19 and created a party album that serves as a perfect dichotomy to a pandemic-submerged era.
While music is clearly at the forefront of their minds, it’s hard not to ignore the pair’s style, which, with its carefree yet timeless look, is a perfect representation of both the group and the city they call home.
“We’ve always loved nostalgic looks,” James says. “We had a style when we were younger, but mine was always a little bit alternative, while Kris had more of a ’70s vibe with flare pants and the crop top.”
Williams proudly admits she loves and will buy almost anything with fringe and sequins.
“I collect pieces,” Williams says. “That’s what’s cool about doing music and performing and doing photo shoots. If I had any other job, I might not wear stuff like that. It gives me the outlet to express myself with my style, too.”
We invited the two to share three looks apiece that might inspire our readers to start taking some fashion risks of their own — fringe and sequins included.
