Her track '212' was the unofficial soundtrack to last season's fashion week shows, and hip-hop star Azealia Banks' domination of the fashion world is showing no sign of slowing down as she's now the face of Alexander Wang's T line.
The rapper is the latest in a string of musicians to front a campaign for the designer's diffusion line, following in the footsteps of Santigold, Spank Rock and Die Antwoord.
This isn't the first time Wang and Banks have teamed up either -- the star was Wang's date for the 2012 Met Gala, and she provided music for his Spring 2012 ready-to-wear campaign with Liya Kibede.
Daniel Jackson directed Banks in the T Fall 2012 video, where she raps 'Van Vogue' from her recent EP '1991'.
'She exudes a certain rawness that makes her a very unique talent,' Wang told style.com.
'I loved working with her on this video for T Fall 2012, and think the collaboration captures a collision of energies.'
Other designers to have fallen for the charms of Banks include Karl Lagerfeld, who asked the musician to perform in his home during a dinner celebrating the launch of his Net-a-Porter clothing line earlier this year.
