If someone asked me to name a male I’d like to trade closets with, I think it’d be A$AP Rocky. His longtime partner may be one of the world’s most iconic style stars, but A$AP Rocky is truly a style icon in his own right.
Week after week, he’s caught by paps carrying the latest It-bags. From his iconic Bottega Veneta Andiamo moment, which was actually a calculated ad campaign, to the time he debuted one of Jonathan Anderson’s first bags for Dior, there’s no denying how culturally relevant he is in the fashion world.
This week, A$AP Rocky was at it again, debuting one of Michael Rider’s first bags for Celine on the streets of New York yesterday, and we are, in a nutshell, obsessed.
Michael Rider’s Fresh Take on Celine’s Legacy
As if his bag wasn’t enough of a show-stopper, A$AP Rocky wore head-to-toe Celine, pairing Michael Rider’s iteration of the iconic Celine Phantom Luggage Tote with jeans, a classic poplin shirt, and a double-breasted jacket—all by Celine.
Rider’s Celine perfectly combines the Celine of the past with the Celine of the present, seamlessly melding different eras to breathe new life into the Parisian brand. A$AP Rocky and Michael Rider are the duo we didn’t know we needed!
Finally a celebrity that is styled impeccably. More men carrying bags please!
He really looks great!
Classy look.
Love the outfit. Dislike the bag.
Kim Taeyung – V from BTS – debuted this a few days earlier
Celine really likes to push bags with cartoonish faces. Now they just need one with a downward zipper to make a sad face.
It looks like a stingray!
Wondering if Rihanna helps out!
His taste and style is impeccable. Obsessed.
Ahh the little “robot face” is smiling now!
Also, Rakim is absolutely gorgeous!!!
