This a washed boys/arrested development conversation
Hovs button down trend was ripped from Ye. Hov was wearing jerseys until Kanye came around wearing blazers, polos, and dress shirts.
These guys are basically arguing what Burrough had the best 90 early 2000s run in urban fashion.
NYCs place as a fashion hub in recent history and currently is primarily because of people who move to New York not New York natives.

Obligatory not from New York but when I think of Harlem and Dipset I partly think fashion. They made it cool to wear a abundance of pink so Harlem should be in front

Harlem had it until like 07 with the street wear
But once Brooklyn nikkas got on the luxury wave it was over
We was doing Japanese raw denim and Comme Des Garçon while they was wearing American Eagle and Holister
When they was wearing biggie merms we was rocking monlcers and we started the Mackage and Canada Goose wave
If you not from NYC you wouldn’t know so I could see why y’all might think Harlem/ manhattan/ uptown/ still got it
But nah from 07 on the momentum shifted to Brooklyn

Harlem was damn near the Capital of the Black World for decades

On second thought Fab is right Fashionista Jay circa the Black Album era had the game in a headlock
"I DONT WEAR JERSEYS IM 30 PLUS
GIVE ME A CRISP PAIR OF JEANS AND A BUTTON UP"
Fab was def the poster child for the 2000s "Fly Boy", but also around the late 2000s Internet started making stuff more accessible. As a Southerner I def gif BK the nod for the Polo Wave (we had our own but it was more Country Club prep, and I was on the Lo Life tip), but I still feel Harlem was bigger historically.
