Burna Boy - Big 7
In Burna Boy's 'Big 7' video, the message is made loud and clear. The clash of cultures within the fashion narrative is vividly depicted, with nothing being held back. Starting with the quaint yet impactful Jacquemus rose print t-shirt, a Parisian sophistication is unmistakably conveyed. This casual chicness is continued with the daringly ripped straight-leg jeans, a raw edge nod to the rebellious spirit in each of us. However, a sense of playfulness is never far away, as demonstrated by the Wu-tang Clan t-shirt, a nostalgic beat of the past that hits all the right notes. Athletic influences also hold a prominent place in the lineup, seen in the smart patchwork colour block men’s outfit. The women's petite puff sleeve top and the sensuous corset lingerie set add a dose of feminine allure, balancing the scales of this gender-fluid styling narrative. The accessories range from the classic, like the Tommy Hilfiger cotton t-shirt to the modern and unique, like the black faux leather padded calf boots and the silver cross-body bag. Some elements of the outfits, like the gold faux leather stiletto heel mules, are pure escapism, whereas staples like the dark denim jeans and the beret bring us back to earth. Standout moments include the brilliant incorporation of the African print A-line shirt and skirt sets, reminding us of Burna Boy's rich African heritage, and Ashley Williams' rhinestone-embellished hairpin serves as the perfect finishing touch. 'Big 7' is a fashion show in motion, a cornucopia of style and culture.
