Logomaniacs will go to great lengths to pay homage to their favorite labels: When you genuinely love LVs, Double C, and golden Medusa heads, every item in your life could use a dash of branding. Outré hip hop stars like Cardi B take the concept a step further by incorporating the motifs in unexpected places. Yesterday on Instagram, she took things to the next level with a celebration of Louis Vuitton. Dressed in a tan crop top, miniskirt, and a 40cm version of the iconic hatbox, Cardi was at her most glamorous. Rather than pull a look from Nicolas Ghesquière’s runway, she and her stylist, Kollin Carter, opted for a custom creation by designer Baba Jange, who transformed a skirt into a tailored blouse just for the occasion.
The clothes were conversation starters, but the look’s biggest surprise came courtesy of hairstylist Tokyo Stylez, who created a memorable platinum blonde ponytail to match the outfit. Detailed with an airbrushed version of the famous monogram (a technique that was also at play by hairstylist Jawara at February s Emilio Pucci showat Milan Fashion Week), Cardi’s mile-long extensions were a sight to behold. Playful with a graffiti ombre effect that worked in the colors of her top, the hair elevated the entire look. Anyone can wear a bag covered in logos, but only the truly dedicated will take things head to toe in epic style.
