In addition to his chart-topping crossover hits, Bad Bunny has become known for his unique and daring fashion sense.
The Puerto Rican artist, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, found success on Soundcloud before working with megastars Cardi B and Drake in 2018. Since then, he's released critically acclaimed albums and earned multiple Grammy Awards, all the while dominating red carpets and concert stages with his signature flair.
While the singer is happy to shop at thrift stores or stop by a gas station for a pair of sunglasses, his signature accessory, he's also formed relationships with fashion houses such as Gucci, Balenciaga and Burberry, which outfitted the star for his Met Gala debut in 2022.
From bold designer prints to graphic tees, keep reading for a look back at some of Bad Bunny's best fashion moments.

"This suit was badass," the rapper said of the look in a 2021 interview with Allure. "By then, Gucci was sending me pieces to wear. The glasses are always decided at the last minute. I'll grab a few pairs to try on when I'm fully dressed and ask everyone's opinion. Sometimes they are designer glasses, but other times they are sunglasses I found at a thrift store or at a gas station."
