Urban fashion inspired by hip-hop has come a long way in the last several decades. From a modest start, on the streets of South Bronx, it has grown to one of the biggest mainstream fashion genres. Almost every notable rapper has a clothing line competing in a demanding market. Sacha Jenkins’ documentary explores this phenomenon, taking us back as far as to the cotton plantation in the South in order to fully grasp the origins of rebellion that led to its huge success. Documentary features interviews with some of the biggest names in hip-hop culture and fashion industry today, like Pharrell Williams, Kanye West, and André Leon Talley, explaining the importance of looking fresh.
