Ian Connor Met Raf Simons And Said The Cutest Thing

A fashion fanboy moment for life.

January 22, 2015

This week, Ian Connor—stylist, Tumblr it-boy, and A$AP crew member—made the rounds at Paris Men's Fashion Week shows. Tagging along with his mentor and self-proclaimed "father," A$AP Rocky, Connor met his fashion hero Raf Simons and, quite appropriately, fanned out; he told Simons that he had tattoos of his work all over his body. Simons—who presented a youth culture-inspired collection of graffiti-strewn trench coats, floor-grazing vests, and sleek turtlenecks—was familiar with Connor's literal body of work and seemed equally stoked. Below, check out Connor's recap of the life-affirming interaction, plus highlights from Simons' collection.
