A$AP Rocky, Playboi Carti & Quavo Stunt drop the official video of “RAF”
In the images of the cult pieces of the Belgian designer
July 25th, 2017
What are doing together A$AP Rocky, Playboi Carti and Quavo dressed from head to toe Raf Simons?
Easy, they shoot the official video of RAF.
The song, which appeared for the first time in May during the radio show of Frank Ocean Blonded, immediately became a small hit thanks to its catchy chorus that repeats “Please do not touch my Raf”.
If in that debut version appeared together with the rapper trio Frank Ocean and Lil Uzi Vert, in the track launched in these hours their featuring is inexplicably disappeared. No panic!
The lower number of performers is offset by the increasing number of outfits signed by the Belgian designer.
In fact, in the video images, the artists parading back and forth like professional models, continuously changing look and retracing in a few minutes the Simons career.
The opening scene is a clear reference to the SS02 collection, Woe Unto Those Who Spit Unto the Fear Generation; The Wind Will Blow It Back, just one of the many tributes to the cult designer.
Among the many changes of clothes, pieces of archive provided by menswear marketplace community Grailed, you recognize the “Kollaps” hoodie, the oversized bomber jacket, parka with print-tribute to the Manic Street Preachers for the collection FW03 Closed, various sleeveless items, degradè sweaters from the SS16 collection, “poltergeist” parka part of History of My World for FW05, pieces of FW16 collaboration with Sterling Ruby and heads of FW95’s first Simons collection .
Watch the video of RAF and have fun discovering them all!
