The History of Raf Simons
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июн 2024
- Raf Simons is one of the most influential designers in the history of fashion. We all know that he’s a favorite among celebrities like Kanye West and A$AP Rocky, but in this video we’ll be going all the way back to the very beginning. We’ll see how he got his start in the industry without going to school for fashion, the most important shows early in his career (including Black Palms, Riot Riot Riot, and Virginia Creeper), his appointment at Jil Sander, the drama surrounding his departure, his work at Dior, the move to Calvin Klein, and then finally his arrival at Prada. We’ll also be looking at how he impacted the sneaker game with his Adidas partnership, featuring standouts like the Ozweegos and Stan Smiths. Overall this journey is truly an inspiring one to look back at, and I’m excited for you all to watch. This is the history of Raf Simons.

@@mehradakhondi7657 he did Ian Connor already so watch that
A now unknown designer who will be famous in the future will credit your channel for inspiration. Guarantee it. These bids help everyone
Most definitely!
That’s finna be me Fr Fr 😤
Manifestation💆🏾♂️
Me asf
Same
I was really giving up on doing clothing and finding your channel and hearing about everyones story has really motivated me to keep going.
What’s your brand called bro? Brand owner here as well
Right! owning a clothing brand isn’t easy & takes a lot of mental toughness
@@Tauhir331 what’s your brand?
Been a brand owner for 5 years and it’s a marathon bro Social media can make or break you but building a community behind your brand will give it a strong structure!
Peace ✌🏾
@@raidteamco.7438 good insight! What is your brand n how could we make a community behind our brands?
One thing’s missing. The yearly collection with Fred Perry. He’s kind of leading the way FP is moving, keeping the grunges/punk dna, with full Raf design year after year. It’s underrated for sure.
Still wear my fred perry raf all the time
Not sure if anyone else said it on here yet, but I believe the “NEBRASKA” sweatshirts are in reference to Basquiat. There’s a very famous photo of him wearing a “Nebraska” football Jersey from the 80s. And I feel this fits in line with Raf’s aesthetic and love of rebelliousness and art
That Has to be it, I can't believe how no one caught that...that was brilliant 🤝🎨
Holy smokes - this is the truest form of fashion history I've found on YT. Coming from someone who's worked with ONEWARD, VF etc, this is the content I hope gets out to more folks!
means the world thank you 🙏
It may be hard to believe, but the Riot - Virginia Creeeper - Consumed era collections were hard work to sell. They were well received in the alternative fashion media, but consumer bases were scant. We had boxes of the stuff from all these collections, going at 70% off, and still hardly shifting. The late 90s early 00s mens fashion world was not locked into a celebrity culture. The context now has shifted, and we see this as position normal.
This channel is such a gift for those who Love fashion
happy to hear that thank you!
The longer the better, going from fashion videos to fashion documentaries.
great video! as someone who loves fashion and wearing clothes I am trying to brush up on the history of the brands and designers that I love, your videos have been very fundamental in helping me do that. Thank you.
awesome! thanks for watching!
Threaducation your channel got me into fashion and wanting to learn more about this amazing form of art. Thank you for this video, looking forward to many more :-)
Your station and videos are inspirational not only to designers, whom I see many comments from! but anyone can appreciate your comprehensive and eclectic content . even a bit spiritual ! I love how you work the concept of fate, timing , and destiny into these docs ..I’m sure you inspire a lot of fashion designers
One of my favorite episodes from this series yet! Great work as always
I had been looking forward to this for quite some time. Thank you
Got to love the attention to the details this channel delivers

Definitely needed this one! 🙏🏽

more on the way I promise!
@@Threaducation I would love to see Prada and Margiela next!
Amazing video as always 🙏🏽 much love
Great video as always!! I had a mind blown moment with the Nebraska logo. RAF being the original reference on the continued use of the word Nebraska in street wear. Makes sense and connects many dots.
Been waiting for this one baby
Thank you
Worth the wait thank you!!👏🏽
gotta head out now but i already know this gonna be a banger when i get time to watch

happy to hear that, thank you for watching!
Absolutely LOVE your channel and I also love the background music 😊😊😊
I've been waiting on this one! Great Video
Great explanation! Even as a Raf-head I had learnt new curiosities or infos! You always bring fire contents man, congratulations.
same here, how is your depression status?
hyped every time u drop 😮💨
these video essays are always amazing
Raf at CK was chef freaking kiss!
agree, i liked it a lot more than it got credit for
Great video bro I am a die hard Raf fan I have alot of his older archival pieces and I love to study his older collections so this video came at the right time. Now I def want to get some more pieces thanks to this video since I sold one of my AW 2000-2001 "Confusion" patched sweaters. I def want to get some more Black Palms pieces I only have 1 from that collection.
Another great video.. thanks again for the amazing content & teaching me more about another designer I love
great video man enjoyed the whole thing!
you don't know how long I've been waiting 4 this man
Great content, lots of information, thx for these man! Keep up the good work! Love from Taiwan!
Thanks for these videos 💯
Tysm I needed this so much, I can now make my school project on this❤
As someone whose been in the fashion industry for a minute, your videos are very good.
This channel has become my favorite on RUclips
Amazing quality as usual
As a clothing designer myself, im very very inspired by the likes of Raf & Rick, there was information in this I didn't know at all, some of the best designers in the world want to be nobody, passion over accolades 🖤
I don’t understand why people always associate Raf and Rick, like they don’t have a lot in common, their approachs are very different. I would rather make a link between Raf and Undercover for example. But anyway, I respect the fact that you have these as inspirations, they are both incredible designers.
Been waiting on this one and thank u for using this track for the background 💜
What track is this?
Haven't watched this episode yet (already know it's gonna be fire)...but after you watch it, go watch the Raf doc Dior And I. It's phenomenal and shows Raf's genius in it's rawest form.
Great video man!
another amazing video!
Thank you for this video you wonderful lad
super well done small documentary on Raf Simons, I slowly get to his works.. a lot fire stuff
but all my fav pieces are crazy expensive, but it's make it more fire tho. thanks.
bro i love u, thanks for the videos
great vid! speaking on current era: loved the first collection of men and women's at prada and the latest ones are gorge re: accessories
thanks man awesome script and awesome audio recording with the punches. !
Finally a new upload!
This was awesome and u definitely need to make a video on JIL SANDER
Thumbnail is legendary
What is it from?
shit look hilarious
Thanks for the info and video 👍
If you ever do a video on Jil Sander can you include Lucie and Luke Meier? I find their story interesting and their taste is really good
Yes I'd love to see one of Jil Sander
🔥fire as always🔥
Great video man! Keep on doing that stuff. I would love to see one about Alexander mcqueen or Martin Margiela
The video implies Raf at CK was a downmarket move but Calvin Klein’s RTW and diffusion lines (the jeans, underwear, perfurm, etc) were made by 2 separate companies. The RTW was just as prestigious as any American label could be, but the diffusion lines eclipsed the brand, and made the RTW unsellable to high-end retail buyers.
Great video! You got yourself a new subscriber!
Awsome vid!!
I love these brand history videos
Dope work mane
thank you mane
I love the storytelling approach to this video. Very comprehensive and educational. New fan! PS Not a big fan of Raf on his own. If we can’t explain why a sweater with the word Nebraska on the front was popular as a fashion piece then it’s a case of the emperor has no clothes. I do though enjoy his work at Prada.
I love this channel
W UPLOAD ONCE AGAIN‼️‼️
Can't even watch it rn but I already know that it's going to be a banger
Would love to see more history on women designers. Love what you’re doing
