Rhymes, Rhythms, and Runway: Unveiling Farfetch's Tribute to 50 Years of Hip-Hop Style

Fifty years of Hip-Hop has been a catalyst for inspiring some of the most iconic fashion moments in history. From Jay Z's classic tracksuits to Kanye West's Yeezy collaborations, Hip-Hop culture and fashion have collided seamlessly, giving birth to a new type of style that continues to make waves today. With the music genre becoming an international phenomenon and influencing today's millennials more than ever before, it is no surprise that leading fashion labels are paying homage to the trend by creating limited-edition collections that echo the style and soul of it's roots.

Farfetch has taken this tribute even further by launching their own carefully curated collection, bringing together some of the world’s hottest labels and offering superior streetwear with a high-end twist. Combining modern athleisure wear with classic street pieces, this edit gives 50 years of Hip-Hop a fresh edge whilst maintaining its original DNA.
