Fashion-Appropriating Food Creations

Yujia Hu Combines His Two Passions of Cooking and Fashion

— February 9, 2018 — Fashion
Chinese chef Yujia Hu is blowing up on Instagram with his elaborate food creations that fuse high fashion with the art of making sushi. Yujia Hu's edible creations boast products like the classic Converse High Tops, Italian luxury house Balenciaga, T-Shirts by Thrasher Magazine, as well as Supreme and Nike apparel. A definite masterpiece is the 'Vegeta Hyper Saiyan,' depicting the character from Dragon Ball Z with an upside-down adidas logo and a Gucci hoodie made from Salmon.

It is easy to mistake Yujia Hu's food creations for an advertising ploy. However, with the gaining popularity of these sushi-inspired masterpieces and the recent tendency of fashion labels to collaborate with independent artist, a future partnership between the Chinese chef and a fashion label is definitely feasible.
