Lorenzo founded Fear of God in 2011,[3] despite his lack of fashion training and relative unfamiliarity in the world of streetwear.[4][5] Notably, Lorenzo designed and created five custom looks for Justin Bieber to wear on stage during his Purpose World Tour, and also helped in the design process for the tour’s merchandise.[6][7]
In 2018, Lorenzo launched Essentials as a subsidiary to Fear of God, described by Vogue as a "competitively priced sister label."[8] Since its launch, various celebrities, including Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez and Virgil Abloh have been seen wearing the brand.
