Fur slides may have started as ridiculous footwear but became one of the year’s biggest trends. All fashion blogger hell broke loose after Gucci released its fur-trimmed shoe collection — particularly Gucci’s “Princetown” fur slides.
A$AP Rocky was one of the few celebrities, let alone men, to rock the Gucci “Princetown” slides unapologetically. The rapper arrived in style at the 2016 LACMA Art + Film Gala held in Los Angeles. Brie Larson and her fiancé were also at the event.

The LACMA Art + Film Gala was a collaboration event with Gucci, so A$AP Rocky stepped out of his car in a head-to-toe Gucci look.

Creative director Alessandro Michele’s visionary design inspired the rapper’s Chinese-influenced suit, which he paired with a crisp white shirt, cuffed slacks featuring a side trim, and the iconic Gucci “Princetown” slides.

It wasn’t the first time the rapper wore the slides. Kendall Jenner’s rumored boyfriend has been spotted out comfortably wearing the pair on numerous casual occasions. Alessandro Michele really knows his muses.
