Indian Rapper Badshah Made His Debut at the New York Fashion Week

Debuting at New York Fashion Week is one of the most notable achievements for many rappers, and now, Badshah is also on the list. This Indian rapper has recently performed at the NY runway and turned Saturday into a complete blast of music and fashion. He has also become the first-ever Indian rapper to perform at the New York Fashion Week, and his fans are quite delighted.

It was the runway for designer Alexander Wang, and the collection of Spring 2026 was truly captivating. Badshah made sure to keep the energy high in the room by performing the tracks like ‘Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai’, ‘Proper Patola’, as well as ‘Saturday Saturday’, which seemed like the perfect set list for the Saturday event.

The fashion event took place at 58 Bowery, and it also marks Alexander Wang’s comeback to NYFW after 7 long years. This appearance of the rapper took place amidst his ongoing rap tour in North America. He has recently appeared at the Paris Men’s Fashion Week, and it seems like Badshah is slowly becoming a well-recognized persona at the fashion shows as well.

He was performing for a fashion show, and it would not have matched if he were not wearing designer-exclusive clothes himself. Badshah’s drip was handled by New York–based Shipra Sharma, where the rapper wore an oversized zip-up hoodie along with monochrome light-washed denim, which was further complemented by chunky black boots designed by Alexander Wang.

The rapper also wore handcrafted diamond-encrusted brooches, which elevated his overall look with a swanky layer of luxury. The accessories were by Deepa Gurnani, which featured motifs of elephants, alligators, and skulls, which were designed by Indian artisans only. It was homage to India as well as the global fashion trends, where every style can merge together.

The rapper also wore a Richard Mille RM 74-02, an exclusive timepiece that added more flavor to the avant-garde style statement. He was also wearing Oakley Metal Jacket sunglasses, which added a more futuristic layer to the retro-inspired denim. Last but not least, there was also a custom 50-carat diamond necklace by Shaneli around his neck. In a nutshell, Badshah’s drip was too ‘fly’.

The NYFW Spring 2026 was arranged to celebrate the designer’s 20th anniversary, along with an exclusive collection titled ‘Matriacrh’. Badshah was sitting in the front row, and it felt much like the American rappers like Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, and many others who have been there and done that.
