Lil Nas X is known for breaking societal norms in the music industry—and he’s no stranger to doing the same when it comes to fashion. Can’t you remember his three outfit changes at the 2021 Met Gala?

So it’s no surprise that the rapper takes Halloween very seriously. Together with Los Angeles designer James Flemons of the brand PHLEMUNS, Lil Nas X took his Cam’ron Halloween costume to the next level. In the years leading up to this moment, in collaboration with stylist Hodo Musa, Flemons had been working on a series of custom looks for Nas (including an iconic red suit that ended up on the cover of Time Magazine), solidifying their design relationship. 

Watch the full episode of Behind the Look to learn more about the viral costume that got Jay-Z’s stamp of approval.
