Skepta reveals where his love of fashion came from

Skepta has revealed that his love of fashion came from his younger years, where he would keep up with trends but couldn't afford to buy into them. 

During a recent interview with Hypebeast, the grime star explained that he always wanted to be in a position where he could afford designer clothes and is proud that he has now managed to achieve that goal:

"I'm not an expert in fashion, but when I was young, all the old gangsters where I lived always had the nicest clothes like Iceberg, HSTRY, Moschino, Versace, and Prada. I always wanted, wanted, wanted nice clothes, and I think literally that's where my love for fashion comes from."

Skepta, whose new album 'Konnichiwa' is out now, added: "It's from all the things I wanted when I was younger, but I couldn't buy as I never had money. Now I like to make it myself, or I buy it."
