SZA is in a league of her own. The genre-defying artist with a unique singing style recently returned with her first single in three years, "Hit Different," and a truly stunning self-directed music video [1] filled with all sorts of shareable (even museum-worthy) shots. To no surprise, the outfits are on point.
The music video looks, styled by Dianne Garcia [2], are mostly monochromatic and appear to correspond to the colours of earth's elements. There are several fiery orange outfits, including a curve-hugging underwire bikini and various sporty separates worn in a dance number. SZA also wears an all-blue oversize outfit surrounded by cars in another eye-catching vignette, then a trendy tie-dye T-shirt with neutral joggers in shots filmed on bales of hay. The standout look, however, happens at the end, with SZA wearing a marbled bikini resembling wood and beaded braids.
What's great about the styling is that, despite being for a music video, it still feels authentic and true to SZA's personal style, which often vacillates between sexy, skin-baring numbers and lived-in, oversize silhouettes. Please do your eyes a favour and watch the "Hit Different" music video ahead, then take a closer at its many outfits.
