Fashion Killa is a classic tale of a modern renaissance; of an exclusionary industry gate-crashed by innovators hoisting hip-hop from the streets to the stratosphere; of supernovas allying with kingmakers; of traditionalist fashion houses transformed into temples of rap gods.
Journalist Sowmya Krishnamurthy explores the connections between the DIY hip-hop scene and the exclusive upper-echelons of high fashion, commemorating the contributions of hip-hop to music, fashion, and our society at large.
