Hip Hop's impact in Fashion

As Hip Hop has grown we watched it become a huge impact on the fashion and cosmetic industry. As artist were showing off their personality and creativity they were making looks that later would flood the runway. From the Jackson's and Prince being one of top influences between costume wear and red carpet recreations. The Urban wear that we've seen thrive throughout the Hip Hop industry. Between legends and designers Biggie, Tupac, Aaliyah and Karl Kani.
