A Furry Wig, Silk Shirt, Track Pants: A$AP Rocky's New Uniform
Some famous folks prefer to dress consistent, angling for a uniform of luxury goods that keeps them looking luxe as they strut from cosmetology appointment to fancy dinner. A$AP Rocky doesn't do consistent, preferring to throw the kitchen sink into his closet and go from there.
But, in late July, Rocky was spotted repeating 'fits, a fairly rare feat for the Fashion Killa.
It goes without saying that us normal folk will likely wear the same thing for an entire day.
No one in their right mind is swapping garms out on the daily except for people at the scale of Rocky and Rihanna, who don't exist in the same stylistic universe as the rest of us — Kim Kardashian, for instance, just went through three outfits in a single day during Paris Couture Week.
Anyways, Rocky and Rih have been spotted around NYC in recent days, after Rihanna returned to the 'fit game following the birth of the couple's son.
Unsurprisingly, they were dressed to the nines in coordinating navy ensembles, demonstrating the combined superpowers expected of two ultra-stylish types at the top of their respective games.
On the evening of July 26, A$AP Rocky was lensed as he headed to Rihanna's NYC hotel wearing a curious look.
It was the same thing he'd been spotted wearing earlier in the week, though without the TESTING T-shirt.
Above a pair of Salomon sneakers, Rocky pooled a pair of adidas adicolor Clash track pants (yours for under $100!), and flexed the custom Serapis jersey made for Rocky's "D.M.B." music video at the bequest of stylist Matthew Henson.
Pink silk is more than enough to top off most folks' looks but this is A$AP Rocky, king of funky hats.
Up top, he wore the same bizarre, tinsel-looking hat that he'd been wearing earlier that day. From any real distance, it almost looks like a multicolored tinsel wig glistening in the pop of camera flashbulbs.
It'd be cool if it was intended to look like actual hair, 'cuz then Rocky'd be twinning with Frank Ocean, who was spotted wearing a wig at LAX in earlier July.
Behind Rocky, you can see an assistant toting a large Goyard bag, mirroring Pete Davidson's Goyard flex from the other day. Not a core part of the 'fit but a good detail nonetheless (and it is always all about the details).
But when I say that this is Rocky's new uniform, I mean it. Rocky wore the exact same thing the next day, July 27, when he went grocery shopping with Rihanna at Whole Foods.
Perhaps he didn't bring a change of clothes when spending the night with Rih but it's obvious that Rocky simply loves this look, though he left the hat at the hotel.
Is Rocky taking it easy on the style front? I wouldn't blame him if so. Who could be expected to ever keep up with Rihanna?.
