‘The Queen of Hip-Hop’ V Magazine photoshoot is one of the brightest and most fun editorials to come out this year. Starring models Chrishell Stubbs, Cora Emmanuel, and Anais Mali, the shoot for V Magazine #75 is full of [neon hues, mismatched shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-souvenir), and rainbow colored hair.

While the world of [high fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) rarely, if ever, goes the hip-hop route, it is nice to see V Magazine taking a more fun and easy going approach to fashion. Rob Evans and Travone Hill are also featured in the [music themed editorial shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-planes-1).

Photographed by Sebastian Faena and styled by Carlyne Cerf De Dudzeele, ‘The Queen of Hip-Hop’ V Magazine photoshoot is a definite must-see for some fun fashion inspiration.
