JAY Z - Excuse Me Miss

JAY Z's Excuse Me Miss video is a symphony in fashion, filled to the brim with sartorial experiments and timeless classics. The sportive allure of the scene is underscored by the presence of a seemingly unassuming Adidas sweatshirt, creating a striking contrast with the sleek, satin pyjamas that follow, embodying a collaboration with Raye. The Adidas three-striped tracksuit makes a return, embroidering a nostalgia-infused tapestry onto the frame. Ethereal, delicate, yet boldly conspicuous, a pair of faux pearl rhinestone leaf swing earrings make their mark. The scene momentarily shifts to softer hues with a fresh linen shirt in a tender pink, followed closely by the Adidas windbreaker in a deep blue, a nod to the football culture. Hairstyles do not fall behind in this parade of fashion, with a carefully styled curly bob and a long brown wig with bangs bringing versatility to the table. Occasions are marked with grandeur, sequin contrast midi dresses spotlight the celebration. Delicate touches are seen in ceramic diamante watches and layered gauze wedding petticoats. Blazers, in varying intensities of black; from sleek velvet to faux fur; and overcoats, complete with faux fur wraparound, stage a formidable presence. The hints of silver from the Long Night Ahead earrings and the stroke of blue twill wool trousers and waistcoats create the perfect blend of metallic and matte. The video, dipping into the tones of black, makes a final refreshing switch with a high-neck jumper that is the epitome of comfort fashion.
