DIM MAK ss18 x Steve Aoki
About last night: Steve Aoki and the BUILD Series presented a live event introducing the Spring/Summer 2018 Dim Mak Collection with a runway show. While the event also celebrated the release of Aoki’s album KOLONY, the musician // DJ presented “Paradise Found” in his sixth collection for DIM MAK.
Chock full of events, there was a runway show featuring the collection and live performance and special guests included Bok Nero, Sonny Digital, Ayo & Teo, Mase, Young Paris and Elijah Boothe. Aoki launched Dim Mak Collection in 2014, an LA based brand inspired by indie rock sounds, skate culture and ‘fellow risk takers.’ Here’s a look at some fave moments from the street / skate influenced menswear pieces. more on blog

The project, due for release July 21 via Dim Mak Records / Ultra Records, marks Aoki’s first full turn into rap music, which he describes as “bridging the gap” between genres and is stacked with hard-hitting rhymes from some of the most prominent lyricists today…”
