Apple Bottoms

Apple Bottoms is a clothing line for women designed by rapper/artist Nelly. It is referred to in various Hip-Hop songs, such as "Overnight Celebrity" by rapper Twista, and more recently the R&B singer Flo Rida in the song "Low" featuring T-Pain.

In 2000, when Universal Records released Nelly's platinum debut album, Country Grammar, his clothing line for men, Vokal, had already been in production for two years. In 2002, Cornell "Nelly" Haynes Jr., by then a successful rapper and diversified entrepreneur, founded Apple Bottoms Jeans. A sister company to Vokal, Apple Bottoms claims to base its designs off of Nelly's idea that "the clothes should fit a woman, not the woman fit the clothes." Jeans in the Apple Bottoms collection are designed for accentuating women's shapely figures with signature details like apple-shaped back pockets.
