I did a thing or rather SHAKA KING MENSWEAR (did a thing) LoL...
First of the year-2024, I received a call, from Costume/Stylist Kim Chewning, for some SKM Big & Tall garments. She was working on a commercial, for Kettle One Vodka, which would air during SUNDANCE Film Festival.
backStory: Dressing Big &Tall men is in the SKM wheelhouse. I jump started my brand by dressing players in the NBA and NFL. Webber, Salley, Barkley, Mourning, Nickerson, Hill, Hardaway (Tim & Penny), Davis etcetera etc...

Behind the scenes lighting, setting-up the shot, prep.
Fun fact: The fashion looks presented to the head hunchos was narrowed down to 3 looks, of which they chose one. SHAKA KING MENSWEAR bodied the top 3 looks of which they selected one.
Watch the full commercial: Note: It is night during a black-out so it's shot dark.
Raising a cocktail to the next generation of filmmakers.
