If you know one thing about The Diplomats, the crew didn’t just have Hip-Hop on lock. The group’s influential legacy created a cultural movement and set trends in fashion, with their unapologetically flashy style. With New York Fashion Week (NYFW) taking the Big Apple by storm, Jim Jones and Juelz Santana reunited for the limited-edition launch of their eyewear with Vintage Frames Company.
On Wednesday night (Sept. 10), Hip-Hop and fashion lovers rolled through New York City’s ESSX to get a peek at the collaborative black sunglasses. As the Martell Dipset-inspired cocktails flowed, DJ Statik Selektah set the vibe on the ones and twos. ASAP Ferg, Fabolous, Maino, FoodGod, Laura Stylez, Jonathan Mannion, Ty Hunter, Kid Super, and Vandythepink were among the noteable attendees. To top off the occasion, Jim Jones and Juelz Santana tagged-teamed for a Dipset performance with DJ Self.
