Wiz Khalifa Talks Fashion And Why He Is Revamping His Sense Of Style

Wiz Khalifa

Wiz Khalifa is revamping his fashion as he wants his new sense of style to better portray him both as a man and as an artiste.

The 28-year-old disclosed during an interview he has been working with a personal stylist, Lauren Matos, for over a year and half as he wanted to upgrade his look to “something more tailored and mature.”

He said, “Before, I was more into streetwear, like a lot of Supreme and Palace when it was first dropping. Lauren really put me onto more high-end designers who can still get that streetwear look. I don’t want to look like a mannequin. I feel like when people start getting money, they start dressing weird.”

Listing his five fashion must-haves, Wiz Khalifa explained how each piece influences his fashion game.


Jeans – You can always catch me in a pair of Saint Laurent jeans. The black ones right now are my favorite, but I love white, too. I like to wear all white: white shirt, white hat, white jeans. It just looks awesome. I look like a little scoop of ice cream.

Shirt – I have a favorite style: I call them my party shirts. Nice button-ups, real silky, with crazy prints. I get them from all over. This look also started a year and a half ago, when I met Lauren. But I also want to graduate my style. I’m 28 years old, so you can’t dress like no little kid anymore.


Jacket – I’ve been wearing this black bomber a lot. This is actually a custom jacket that my stylist, Lauren, got sent to me. As soon as I got with Lauren, she really put me onto the tailoring game and how to up my closet. We get a lot of stuff custom-made. I’m really skinny, so a lot of pieces, unless they’re from certain designers, they’re not built for my body.

Shoes – My favorite shoe right now is the Gucci loafer. I’ve got the slide style and the full loafer. I have brown, black and the ones with the fur on them, too. I’ve been wearing the all-around loafers more, but in L.A., I can wear whatever, because at nighttime it gets a little chilly, so I can wear the fur joints.


Accessories – Being that I’m from the ’Burgh and a Steelers fan, I always rep Pittsburgh with black and yellow jewelry. I’ve been through that whole Rolex phase.

Khalifa is gearing for the release of his new album this fall as well as a July tour with Snoop Dogg. The father-of-one was raised in Pittsburgh but now lives in Los Angeles.

He also considers himself as a budding fashion icon and having his own style brand might be in the works of his future.
