Samenvatting:

From Polo Ralph Lauren's Lo Life shoplifters to FUBU's $350 million empire built on a LL Cool J hat trick, Past Fast Fashion tells the story of the labels that defined American youth culture between 1985 and 2005. Each chapter traces a brand from founding myth to cultural peak to corporate sale, scandal, or quiet disappearance - revealing how hip-hop, skateboarding, and mall culture collided to produce one of the most commercially explosive eras in fashion history. Part business narrative, part cultural archaeology, the book asks what it meant to wear something, and what it cost when the meaning ran out.
