The hip hop culture has become one of the hottest and most powerful things in the music and fashion business. Hip hopers are some of the most influential celebrities in the world today; they influence music, style and fashion.
The truth is that hip hop celebrities always generate money. Russell Simmons, a hip hop mogul, instantly understood that the equation is simple when it comes to hip hop: clothes + hip hop = money. Therefore, he started manufacturing hip hop clothing lines like Phat Farm, Baby Phat or FUBU.
But he didn't stop at this. He hired celebrities like LL Cool J or Alicia Keys to be these clothing lines images.
But what exactly does hip hop style mean? What items one has to wear to be immediately recognised as wearing hip hop clothes?

Dog Clothes make Great Gifts!
Thinking of Giving Clothes as a Gift? There's one Recipient on your Gift List Who's Sure to be Thrilled.When it comes to the art of giving, a gift of clothes is fraught with peril. We've all had encounters from the receiving end. We all have stories to tell. If you don't, you will, just give it time.Mine started early. My grandmother, having survived the Depression, knew how to stretch a dollar.
Buying clothes for her grandkids meant getting everything 3 or 4 sizes too big so we could "grow into it". We endured our baggy clothes, with the sleeves and pant legs rolled up, until we were finally big enough to wear them with dignity. By which time we'd more or less destroyed them.??Then there's my husband. Heaven forbid I should try to give the man a Polo shirt with an uneven hemline. Polos are usually made longer in the back to help them stay "tucked", but hubby goes un-tucked -- always.
He shuns any shirt that breaks his rule, no matter how subtly. For an otherwise easy-going...

The Politics Of Fashion
Everyone knows that clothes make the man. From the executive suits that litter Wall Street like the remnants of a ticker-tape parade to the coveralls and work boots worn by construction workers and mechanics, clothes tell the story of who we are and
where we're going. Even when the workday is done, what we choose to wear on our own time is still a reflection of our personalities. From the sweat-suit to the wet-suit, our clothes are meant to be not only functional, but forthcoming as well. Clothes tell others what we like, and often, how we spend our
time.
Sports franchise logos are constantly on display on Main Street America. T-shirts with well known television, film and music icons can be seen almost anywhere. Clothes have something to say, and people are beginning to realize that the
responsibility of being a walking billboard requires us to choose wisely.
Now, more than ever, politics are entering the realm of fashion. Blatantly political...
