Bisexual raptress and noted shit-talker Azealia Banks is back raining shade and writhing in water in the music video for “Van Vogue,” the third single from her 1991 EP.
Banks reaffirms her fashion cred, dropping references to Céline and Dolce & Gabbana, while both she and the song are featured in T by Alexander Wang’s fall campaign.
Photographer Rankin returns to direct the clip, having shot her previous video for “Liquorice” and one would assume Lady Gaga‘s stylist/ Mugler creative director, Nicola Formichetti, also returned to handle styling duties.
But whoever is responsible for Ms. Banks’ stylish suiting, sequined shift and fedora fierceness deserves some snaps — if only for reminding us how awesome Grace Jones is.
How about we take this to the next level?

Banks’ official debut album, Broke with Expensive Tastes, is due out in September.

i love her music! Since Lil’ Kim has been subpar since 07 and Nicki went too pop, Azealia’s the one to watch.
