Looking at our shirt in a new light, it was no longer a t-shirt for our teenage son who would crumple it up and forget about it, but one my husband James would wear to the art museum the next day, resulting in him get stopped and commented on numerous times. We connected with the designer and learned of his childhood in New Orleans, how he would ride bikes in the quarter and was curious about how things operated there. Starting his line with hand painted sneakers Detrell “Ghost” Wright came up with his logo. He showed us his nearby studio which we could in fact see from our window at the Monteleone Hotel. When we mentioned this, he cited the Monteleone as one of his brand inspos. He modeled several of his fashion forward designs for us in and around his Made in the Hood brand and location, a few shots with the hotel sign in the distance not unlike the Hollywood hills sign.
