Asake - Basquiat
Asake's 'Basquiat' is not just a music video, it's a vibrant fashion runway of streetwear and high-end fashion melting into a canvas of lyrical storytelling. The ensemble kicks off with a bold Nike ACG Storm-FIT 'Rope De Dope' Older Kids' Jacket in a standout Blue that screams Urban Chic. This edgy brilliance is mirrored in the Plus Grey Camo Printed Cargo Jumpsuit, a nod to the gritty undercurrents of urban fashion dynamic. Mirroring the chromatic vigor, the Womens Plus Slim Fit Tailored Trouser in Green, and its male counterpart, the Mens Green Plus Slim Fit Tailored Trouser, add an unexpected punch of color, proving that fashion rules are meant to be played with. And who can miss the dazzling Miss Selfridge Premium festival embellished sequin mini skirt with faux feather trim co-ord in pink? It's where the high end meets Coachella, an unstoppable force of style statement. The Eiffel Split Front Detail Pointed Toe Block Heel Knee High Long Boot in Black Faux Leather strides in to ground the look while elevating it, a perfect paradox. Sparkling in the mix is the Mini rhinestone chain bag in lilac from MANGO, a jewel-toned delight, adding the right amount of bling. The simplicity of the Ericdress Plain Floor-Length Expansion Fashion Skirt and LW Letter Print Drawstring Sweatpants contrast the high-octane pieces perfectly. If edgy decadence had a face, it’d be the Black Faux Leather Contrast Fur Midi Coat and Black Faux Leather Shoulder Pad Ruched Sleeve Glove Detail Shirt, rounding off this eclectic fashion voyage.
