In a music landscape where blending genres is the new norm, few artists are pushing aesthetic boundaries quite like Shaboozey.
But behind every great visual evolution is a stylist with vision, and in this case, it’s Anastasia Walker, the creative force crafting Shaboozey’s genre-bending fashion identity.
A rising star in the styling world, Walker brings a unique perspective shaped by both her love of heritage fashion and her knack for modern reinvention. “I’m obsessed with the tension between old-school Americana and modern streetwear,” she says. “It’s not about choosing one, it’s about letting them talk to each other.”
That philosophy is at the core of Shaboozey’s now-signature look: a fusion of rugged Western details, sleek street silhouettes, and high-fashion polish. Think cowboy hats with chrome-rimmed shades. Distressed denim paired with oversized varsity jackets. Belt buckles next to beaded accessories. It’s country, but not the kind you’ve seen before, and that’s exactly the point.
“Shaboozey isn’t just making music; he’s creating a new lane,” Walker explains. “So the visuals have to do the same.” For her, it’s less about following trends and more about storytelling. Every outfit is part of a larger narrative, one that centers Black expression in traditionally white spaces like country music, while also honoring the cultural influence of hip-hop and Southern style.
Walker’s approach isn’t accidental. Her early days assisting on editorial shoots and curating vintage pieces taught her the power of visual context. “You can wear a cowboy boot, but how you wear it, that’s what changes the story,” she notes.
As Shaboozey continues to climb charts and redefine what genre means, Walker’s styling becomes even more pivotal. She’s not just dressing an artist; she’s building a visual language that speaks to rebellion, resilience, and reinvention.
What sets her apart is her fearlessness in blending past and future, whether it’s pulling inspiration from ‘90s rodeo posters or custom-designing fringe jackets with metallic details. It’s a style that doesn’t ask for permission, and that’s exactly why it resonates.
In a world hungry for authenticity and edge, Anastasia Walker’s eye is leading the charge, one cowboy hat, one chain, one bold silhouette at a time.
