Shy Glizzy is a Grammy-nominated platinum recording artist. As a Washingtonian, working with Shy Glizzy was a pleasure. I was introduced to him through a friend and major label artist manager and was thrilled to get started. From developing merchandise concepts to creating cover art I wanted to showcase his aura and authenticity. With a sound that's all his own and a talent that speaks for itself, Shy Glizzy has shown his staying power from his early mixtapes, to "Crew" with Goldlink then going viral on TikTok at the close of 2022.
Washington D.C. is home to some of the most prestigious universities in the United States. For this project, Glizzy had an idea to create a collection that paid homage to the city's most well-known academic institutions. In addition, the collection was strategically set to drop in the Fall celebrating the homecoming season.
Below are some of the product mockups. These pieces were inspired by Georgetown University which is known for its Division 1 Basketball program, home to Allen Iverson and Patrick Ewing.
