520    "A cinematic narrative of glamour, grit, luxury, and luck,
       Fashion Killa draws on exclusive interviews with the 
       leaders of the fashion world to tell the story of the hip-
       hop artists, designers, stylists, and unsung heroes who 
       fought the power and reinvented style around the world 
       over the last fifty years. Set in the sartorial scenes of 
       New York, Paris, and Milan, journalist Sowmya 
       Krishnamurthy's reporting on the intersecting histories of
       hip-hop and contemporary fashion focuses on the risk 
       takers and rebels--the artists, designers, stylists, 
       models, and tastemakers--who challenged a systemic power 
       structure and historically reinvented the world of haute 
       couture. Fashion Killa is a classic tale of a modern 
       renaissance; of an exclusionary industry gate-crashed by 
       innovators; of impresarios--Sean "Diddy" Combs, Dapper Dan,
       Virgil Abloh--hoisting hip-hop from the streets to the 
       stratosphere; of supernovas--Lil' Kim, Cardi B, and Megan 
       Thee Stallion--allying with kingmakers--Anna Wintour, 
       Donatella Versace, and Ralph Lauren; of traditionalist 
       fashion houses--Louis Vuitton, Fendi, and Saint Laurent--
       transformed into temples of rap gods like Kanye West, 
       Nicki Minaj, and Travis Scott. Krishnamurthy explores the 
       connections between the DIY hip-hop scene and the 
       exclusive upper-echelons of high fashion. She tracks the 
       influence of music and streetwear on the most exclusive 
       (and exclusionary) luxury brands. At the intersection of 
       cultural commentary and oral history, Fashion Killa 
       commemorates the contributions of hip-hop to music, 
       fashion, and our culture at large"--|cProvided by
