The Ian Connor Story
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Ian Connor is one of the most enigmatic, influential, yet controversial figures in streetwear. In this video we look at how he became Tumblr famous, joined A$AP Rocky and the rest of the A$AP Mob, befriended the likes of Virgil Abloh and Kanye West, as well as his own ventures into fashion including Revenge x Storm and Sicko. Along the way we also address some of his controversies including the allegations against him, his feuds with Asspizza and Theophilus London, as well as why he is currently in jail. This is the Ian Connor story.

Ian was really one of the first social media influencers.. this guy who is 5 ft tall and very unpleasant looking( I've seen him in person. he's the size of a 9 year old boy) and yet everyone was trying to dress like him it was maddening.. you would go into soho and literally see Ian clones(usually white kids)

None of those allegations went through. They were just a bunch of women banning together to try and cancel him but without any evidence. But say what y'all want and continue being poor.
In my opinion this is the first video that ACTUALLY covers ian connors roots/beginnings instead of jumping straight into pyrex then revenge storm. Good shit you really did your research.

He did a great job of building solid connections with people who are in the industry. He's popular because of how he dresses, his job styling celebs and collaborations but tbh he did get a bit lucky because all the people he met and were close to were starting to blow up in their careers. It was easy to hang out with rocky, carti etc because they weren't so big yet. That's the sauce for anyone who wants to make it.

This channel is really a fascinating look into this particular subculture. However i cannot be the only one to notice how most of the stories have far more to do with hype than with any sort of aesthetics. 'Brands' seem to get popular because of who is wearing them rather than what they look like. The designs are almost an afterthought, they're barely even mentioned. This channel should be called Hypeducation rather than Threaducation. And from that perspective, it is a completely fascinating look at how proximity to celebrity is the primary currency of this subculture. Reminds of the Lester Bangs quote from almost famous about the the music business turning into an industry of cool. This has to be the purest distillation of an industry that's almost entirely about 'cool'. And fittingly, channels like these do make sanctimonious videos about the genius of these fashion stars...

I remember Drake sent his OVO sneakers to Ian a long time ago and Ian dissed the shoe
7:03 "Now Wiz Khalifa isn't really known for his style." I strongly disagree. Wiz in his early years outside of his mixtapes was known for his style. Cargo shorts, Converse sneakers, Crewneck sweaters, Levi's 501 jeans, Fitteds with the brim bent upwards, that was all popularized by him during that era. He literally had everybody in the country at one point dressing like him.
