The Matthew Williams Story (Alyx, Givenchy, Been Trill)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- Matthew Williams is one the most popular designers to emerge in the past few years, and in this episode of Threaducation we will take a look at how that happened. All things considered, it’s a pretty crazy story. He started off woking for a brand in Los Angeles, began working with with Kanye West, started dating Lady Gaga, eventually joined Kanye’s creative agency DONDA, founded Been Trill alongside Virgil Abloh, Heron, Preston, and Justin Saunders, then eventually left that to found Alyx. After a few years of proving himself at Alyx he became the creative director of Givenchy. We’ll break down each step along the way along with some surprising facts and theories. This is the Matthew Williams story.

The more and more I watch these videos I understand that most of these success stories are nothing more than connections and people being in the right place at the right time. And many are 6 degrees of separation in terms of familiar circles. There are so many talented people in the world who never hit those connections, but to be fair, you also have to network and be more than regional
Hell yeah. No matter what anyone says connections will win 9/10 times.
almost every one of these stories involves kanye it’s hilarious
Exactly why good communication skills are so important.
@@SadjadBoss yea he’s basically at the top of the totem pole of this fashion/ culture shit…then you have Virgil, Bari, Rocky & Ian
super facts
I really want to see Lancey's story he went from a drug dealer to a model/music artist bcs of his appearance in this video
facts
we need this frrrr
He really supports younger generation and the rap industry hard hard i love that
Kanye really influenced all these fashion designers the past 20 years
He is the voice and truth of this generation, of course he can and will influence others.
niggas as famous as Jesus
TOO BAD THE WORLD WONT REALIZE HOW GOATED HE IS UNTIL HE GONE
It was his gf who introduced him to fashion, she was a knitwear designer and sadly I forgot her name, but you can see how his style and interest changed after she took him to PFW for the first time.
I had no idea who Mathew Williams is, but after seeing this; it’s amazing how everything is connected in the fashion industry.. as a casual, I only see the surface, but seeing the roots of many popular brands? It’s actually not as complex, as I once thought, it’s more organic.. it’s ppl who have a vision, and the environment around that vision that makes it all rise- and, at times the reason why it falls too. At its core, it’s just a person who decided to be free with their expressions, and using their influences to make something so eye catching & unique.
Another amazing video, man.. as always. Seriously. You haven’t had one bad video, or even mediocre, they’ve all been insane quality.
🙏
word
It's nepotism too
i feel you on that
The ECCO2K story/style evolution sometime soon would be a banger
Yes
that would be amazing
👀👀👀
Would definitely be sick but the dude is really elusive. It would be hard to find a lot of info on Ecco
@@dvb013 true, its difficult but theres definitely things like his friendship with Matthew M. Williams and his style evolution as a whole that would be good to almost put in a timeline if ya feel me
Great video! I really love the vibe and all the information packed into it
keep it up :))
I love your content bro you’re the man you are literally the best UA-cam has to offer at the moment.
Been waiting on this one🧛🏽🔥🔥
The video many of us including myself have been anticipating. Thank you 🔥🔥
Thx for making a video on him was hoping for it :)
I feel like everyone’s stories are always the same in a sense , excluding matthew, they start off nobody then they randomly coincidentally meet someone that will "change their life forever". Life really is about who you know and being in the right place at the right time .
Just make sure when you meet them you've got something to say, both in your words and in your work.
@@frederikduplessis3836 so true man also why good communication skills are crucial
Been waiting for this one 🔥🔥

In the early 2010's Williams was also affiliated with stussy a lot since he did quite a few direction and styling gigs for the lookbooks, which is probably how they managed to get the stussy collab.
If i remember correctly the timeline regarding alyx is a bit different. I think while the brand was doing okay, he needed an investor and thats when Luca stepped in and they moved the entire studio to Slamjams headquarters near modena and changed the name from alyx studios to 1017 alyx
What's also important regarding his love life is that around the time he started working for Givenchy, him and Jennifer separated. I do not think they are on good terms and I do believe its made a huge impact on Williams as an industry professional.
Great work on the vid. Evolution of Lancey next?
Your videos never disappoint
appreciate you!
This installment was dope. I'm a fan of Matthew but I didn't know a lot about his background. I'm surprised you didn't talk about the MMW x Nike colab. It was fire. Dope episode though.
Love to see you do Public School at some point.
Or the alyx x moncler colab🤯
