A.P.C clothing line founder Jean Touitou has plans on coming out with his brand new  fall/winter 2015 clothing line called  ” Last N*ggas In Paris”. The line is dedicated to Jay Z and Kanye West’  Grammy nominated song ” N*ggas in Paris ” ; here is an excerpt of Jean Touitou explaining  the meaning of his line ” Last N*ggas in Paris” to StyleMagazine  

“I call this one look Last N*ggas in Paris. Why? Because it’s the sweet spot when the hood meets Bertolucci’s movie Last Tango in Paris. So that’s ‘N*ggas in Paris’ and Last N*ggas in Paris. Oh, I am glad some people laughed with me. Yes, I mean, it’s nice to play with the strong signifiers. The Timberland here is a very strong ghetto signifier. In the ghetto, it is all the Timberlands, all the big chain. Not at the same time—never; it’s bad taste. So we designed Timberlands with Timberland.”

Furthermore, the A.P.C designer ran the idea by Kanye West to name is collection after his song , the fashion icon had gave him his blessing to produced the 2015 fall/winter line.  Here is Mr.Touitou another excerpt explaining his concept to ” Last Niggas in Paris” clothing line

“One hip-hop song is called ‘Ni**as in Paris.’ One movie is called Last Tango in Paris,” he said. “I made looks which are a cross-over of those two references: the Timberland shoes and the sweat pants are iconic of hip-hop, and the camel hair color coat, worn with nothing under it, is iconic of that precise movie.
