Beyonce wears a head-to-toe custom MCM look created by celebrity stylist in her latest internet-breaking music video, Ape****.
The fashion architect timelines her career, including historical Beyonce fashion moments, in the upcoming MCM documentary created in partnership with Tribeca Film Festival, The Remix: Hip-Hop x Fashion. The film honors female forces in hip-hop and is set to premiere this Fall 2019.
MCM debuted the first global teaser for The Remix: Hip Hop X Fashion documentary at the 17th Tribeca Film Festival, on April 18-29. The upcoming documentary honors the cultural influence of stylists who defined ’90s hip-hop fashion. The trailer’s debut was followed by an exclusive concert event paying homage to the evolution of hip-hop and fashion with special performances by one of hip hop’s founding fathers, Big Daddy Kane, and Grammy-nominated rising star, Rapsody.
The Remix: Hip-Hop X Fashion documentary will premiere in full in Fall/Winter 2018.
When fashion and hip-hop collided, a new cultural landscape was born. This documentary delves into the untold creativity and vision that brought that landscape into fruition. The film journeys from the genre-defining work of renowned stylist and fashion architect, Misa Hylton, who created some of the most iconic looks with top artists such as Lil’ Kim, Mary J. Blige, and Missy Elliot, to the many hidden stories of quintessential female players in the male-dominated world of hip-hop.

Supported by MCM and created in partnership with Tribeca Studios, The Remix: Hip-Hop X Fashion documentary is co-directed by Lisa Cortés, the Academy Award-nominated producer of Precious, The Woodsman, and Shadowboxer, and renowned film editor, Farah X.
The feature documentary will trace the origins of fearless, full-color hip-hop style—from the Bronx and Brooklyn to the Paris runways—and credits Hylton as one of the first stylists to meld streetwear with haute couture. Reliving some of her most unforgettable fashion looks of all time, like Lil’ Kim’s sheer purple mermaid-inspired catsuit at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards.
It will feature a mix of vivid reporting, archival footage, rare interviews and original commentary from artists and fashion luminaries. MCM, the German luxury label, portrays the vision of fashion as a tool for personal reinvention—and tells the story of women bravely remaking the music industry with their authentic senses of style.
