Hip Hop Fashion from the 80s
During the 80s there was one designer who brought designer clothing to the street. Even before Kanye West existed. Thanks to Dapper Dan rappers like RUN DMC, Salt and Pepa and LL Cool J, but also boxer Mike Tyson started to wear Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Fendi.
Dapper Dan had a shop in Harlem and was the brain behind a lot of the most hilarious outfits seen in the 80s. What do you think for instance of his blown up Louis Vuitton coat combined with fur, that he made for sporter Diane Dixon?
