3. Young Thug
Young Thug exists in his own universe and world. Though the Atlanta rapper and former Birman affiliate resides on this earth and biosphere his internal view of what is stylish is purely derivative of his own interests. Thugger’s polarizing and ostentatious selection of exclusively designer wears has prompted slight disapproval states his stylist Zara, “Sometimes he’ll do stuff on purpose that he knows will piss people off,” she says. “If people start talking sh*t about his nails being red, he’ll put crystals on the nails. Talk about his jeans, he’s like, ‘I want tighter jeans.’ He goes out of his way to make sure people know he doesn’t care.” Thug’s style genius is in his complete disregard of others rocking hood approved kicks like the Riccardo Tisci AF1 and Hood By Air Avalanche boot with avant garde garments from Fendi, Margiela and Raf Simons doing so with complete conviction.
