Best and worst fashion at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards

Last night’s Billboard Music Awards show included some watercooler-worthy moments, like Jordin Sparks‘ tribute to Whitney Houston, and a teary-eyed acceptance of Whitney’s Millenium award by her daughter Bobbi Kristina. And there were more sweet/funny/crazy moments, which you can read about here. But let’s talk about the fashion.

Baby Phat’s gone boho for Spring/Summer 2012

When Baby Phat first launched all those years ago, it was an edgy, street brand – the little sister to Phat Farm, all fierce with the sassy kitty logo.
