![]() and you had perfumes from Prada and Chloë Sevigny tucked into the cupholders. ’”Ī flick I snapped of the cupholders in Tyler’s BMW E30 M3 coupe in 2019 - with the SCENTS ON DECKīlackbird Spyplane: Last time I saw you, we were driving around L.A. Live in it, get holes in it, go to an orgy in it. With this new Le Fleur stuff, everyone who came to the store, everyone who buys a piece, I’m like, ‘Yo, this silk shirt? Wear it! Don’t keep it on ice. Tyler, The Creator: “And it’s about just buying pieces you love. These pants I have on right here got holes in ‘em and I just said, stitch ‘em up - now they’ve got this thread all over them, but I don’t care.”īlackbird Spyplane: That’s the sashiko mindset: If you make repairs look interesting, it only deepens the beauty of the garment… ![]() Tyler, The Creator: “Dude, that’s really the move. If I like a piece, I’ll wear it till I literally can’t anymore.”īlackbird Spyplane: And at that point you can get it mended and keep it rocking! Tyler, The Creator: “ I think uniforms are ill. Tyler, The Creator: “A lot of them have stylists or someone bringing ‘em clothes and saying, ‘Wear this.’ And a lot of guys just wear whatever clothing brands send them, because they just like free sh*t! I’m not knocking that at all, but I know what I like, and I figure out what I like: I’m okay with trying and experimenting for a few months before finally nailing it.”īlackbird Spyplane: And once you figure it out, you’ll rock the same thing every day, which is tight… I admire someone who locks in a uniform. ![]() ’”Īndré 3000 & Kanye w/ Tyler at the Malibu Golf Le Fleur party…īlackbird Spyplane: You’ve always communicated a strong sense of knowing what you like and what you don’t when it comes to clothes - a lot of ppl in the public eye don’t have that intuitive of a relationship to how they dress, and it shows! And Ye came by wearing big-a** boots (below), and that silhouette just looked so ill on him, because he believes it. She copped some things at the Le Fleur shop and I was, like, ‘Man I wonder how she’s gonna piece it together.’ My friend Cam Hicks came by and he dresses really cool. Oh, and I think Traci Ellis Ross has great style. I met him in person, he’s super tall, super lanky, he just looks ill - ”īlackbird Spyplane: O, Goldblum’s a hottie for sure … “I do think Jeff Goldblum looks great in sh*t. A whole other world of people who I think are ill but may not be familiar with me. With the clothes I made this time, I actually wanted to reach past people who know my stuff and get to those older women who have the illest style, those older men I see in passing. Honestly, it’s mostly random old people in the street. That’s part of why I’m so enamored with how older people dress, ‘cause it’s, like, ‘Wow, that man has perfected how silk sits on his short arms’ or whatever.”Įveryone came thru Jurassic Park fitted, but Jeff Goldblum was unparalleled in the all-black-everything Chaos Theory drip !!īlackbird Spyplane: Whose way of dressing do you admire? You know exactly what you’re going for, you’ve had 40-50 years of figuring out how pants fit, figuring out what kind of shirt looks good with your shoulders. Tyler, The Creator: “Yeah, when you get older you’re more of a sniper. On one hand, aging as a jawns enthusiast can be tricky, because it’s way tougher than when you were younger to pull off wild s**t and not look ridiculous or try-hard - but on the other hand, hopefully by that point you have a clearer internal barometer of yr own “personal style.” I mean, I’ve gotten caught up in that idea myself, but it’s, like, why is wearing a nice sweater or a tie considered old or outdated or wise or anything?”īlackbird Spyplane: Part of the answer probably has to do with how little old people seem to care about what they wear. Tyler, The Creator: “It’s funny that a sweater can have an age attached to it. It’s a thousand photos of me in them at this point, ‘cause they’re my favorite pants in the world ever - I hope I can keep them for another 20 years.”īlackbird Spyplane: Some time in the last few years you went from dressing like a skater kid - rocking a uniform of roasted Vans + cut-off jorts + striped athletic socks - to dressing like a swaggy Russian grandpa - rocking a uniform of chunky knits + brown highwaters + fuzzy Ushankas + loafers … Was that about approaching 30 and figuring out how to “dress for yr age” ? There’s these brown Gucci pants I’ve been wearing constantly since January 2020. I wear a lot of pastels, and it’s a great base for that. Tyler, The Creator: “Brown really goes with almost every color. Blackbird Spyplane: First things first, I wanna thank you for opening my eyes to the power of brown clothes - I’ve been rocking hella brown s**t for the past year, and I think that’s ~100% down to seeing you wear brown pants with such panache…
