HIP daddy X HAUTE DADS Winner

Its here! Hip Daddy + Haute Dads Fathers Day photo contest winner's feature story!

Campion Platt and his wife, Tatiana Platt both "believe boys should be boys and girls should be girls. Meaning girls should get to wear cream puff tutu skirts and big bows (which their girls love to do), and boys should be relaxed and active, white and turquoise polo shirts on Fox bring out his amazing blue eyes."

Campion is an amazing dad, way more hands on than most. He is patient, doting and caring (he is also a Buddhist).  From the time the kids were born, they have all swam in the ocean - they literally started swimming at 1 month old and Campion taught them all. They are now all amazing swimmers, even their camp counselors are blown away.

Campion's current focus is on healthy living. He is gluten free and even built his family a scrumptious organic vegetable garden this summer! Campion is a great cook and throws together amazing healthy meals from their family's garden. Campion can be recently seen in the current July issue of Beach magazine.

Spring is in the air

"I used to only wear vintage clothes because I thought contemporary designers didn't pay enough attention to the comforts, style and swagger of the modern man. Certainly not like they do for the ladies. Designers of yesteryears had more discerning senses of detail, form and choices of fabrics.  However, in recent years, designers have stepped their game up considerably, and I've been finding myself pleasantly surprised at what is offered for the urban man. I can combine vintage and modern looks, and so long as I can drop kick a buster for looking at my daughter funny, and still feel classy drinking an espresso in what I'm wearing, it's all gravy...And Chloé, well she loves patterns and anything that moves when she spins around."  Chloé can be seen as a model for Mara Hoffman's new kid's apparel.

Daud's music alias is under the name Yungtouch, & his stylings can be described as Tropical House or Trap Tropics, and Lo-fi Rapso. He has always been very submersed in percussion, currently drawing influences from Soca, Jùjú and Soweto styles. A new project he recently co-created is a production duo with a friend, Josh Hoisington, named "Tournament".  Tournament produces for artists and vocalists as well as commercial work for licensing.  Daud's favorite "go -to's" for listening pleasure, currently are, Cashmere Cat, Run the Jewels (El-P and Killer Mike), Future Islands, Onra, Dyro and Hudson Mohawke.
