Nas X and Gaultier, fashion&#8217;s \u201cenfant terrible,&#8221; teamed up to re-launch an old classic from the archives, with a new aesthetic twist paying homage to Nas X&#8217;s biblical aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration includes a long-sleeved mesh top which retails for $390, which features Nas X&#8217;s devil and angel imagery in the most maximalist and opulent way, with no square inch of the shirt left blank. Gold lettering displays Gaultier&#8217;s and Nas X&#8217;s namesake, with Nas X making his appearance on the front with angel wings and a halo surrounded by flying demon cherubs. Still following along?<\/p>\n<p>Jean Paul Gaultier said in a statement announcing the collaboration that the mesh top is \u201ca reinterpretation of the iconic second-skin mesh top from Spring-Summer 2001 collection incorporating Lil Nas X\u2019s camp aesthetic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In typical Nas X fashion, there are exactly 666 editions of the shirt available for purchase. This isn&#8217;t the first time Nas has pulled a stunt like this. When his hit single &#8220;Montero (Call Me By Your Name)&#8221; came out ahead of the album of the same name, Nas X released 666 editions of a Nike shoe, which included a vial of human blood, without the explicit permission of the shoe brand. It resulted in a subsequent lawsuit from Nike, and an order from the company that MSCHF, the manufacturer of Nas X&#8217;s shoe collaboration, destroy the shoes.<\/p>\n<p>Nas X has received much criticism from conservative media outlets, claiming that the rapper is &#8220;pushing an agenda&#8221; and &#8220;corrupting the youth.&#8221; But at the end of the day, appropriation of biblical imagery is sure to garner attention, and Nas X is just playing the game in an age when controversy gets clicks. Plus, it doesn&#8217;t hurt that he looks good while doing it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29250,"featured_media":24164,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[23,16],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Lil Nas X And Jean Paul Gaultier Release Limited Edition Collaboration<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Following Lil Nas X&#039;s release of his debut album,\u00a0Montero, with all of its hits and imagery, the rapper has announced that he and fashion house Jean Paul Gaultier have released a limited edition collaboration.
