Gradone and DM met in a gay bar in New York city where he flirted with DM, thinking she was a man. After this, the pair became friends and DM invited Gradone to a benefit concert, where she was performing. Hearing DM sing, Gradone invited DM to form a band together, which she refused. Gradone then sent DM three tracks to listen to and asked again if she would work with him. DM had plans to start an all-woman metal band but agreed to join with Gradone, and thus Hi Fashion was formed.

Originally, the pair named the band “Hi-Fashion $5.99” and later changed it to “Hi-Fashion $9.99” and eventually dropped the price tag and became known simply as “Hi-Fashion”.

A second EP by the duo was announced in April 2013, to be titled "You Are Gorgeous". The band ensued to raise the funds needed to support and produce the album by use of Kickstarter, where they successfully raised over $25,000. The album was released in July of that year.

The band's style is most noted in their music videos for their singles, demonstrating a lavish and outlandish fashion style, also strongly mirrored in their live performances. Many of the clothing items are made by the band themselves.
