Celebrity stylist and sportswear specialist Megan Ann Wilson partners up with photographer Tiara Mare on a new editorial highlighting Jordan Brand’s summer collection. Inspiration for the editorial springs from the 1992 Dream Team, whose perfect Olympic campaign ended with a 117-85 win over Croatia in Barcelona. Wilson scouted the Lower East Side as the setting for the shoot, turning to local courts for a hardened feel. In an interview with KALTBLUT, Wilson stated that her aim was “…to take the Jordan SS lifestyle collection and make it more appealing to youth culture, current trends (’90s revival and skateboarding) but maintaining the core basketball DNA.” Watch below for the shoot revolving around models Shane Augustus and Fabe Robinson.
