“I admire
photographers who,
when you see their
photos, you can look
into their souls and get
a sense of who they are
as a human being and
their world perspective;
what they love and
what they hate.”
“It was a natural move...my priority was, and
always is, my family,” says Gligoric.
However, setting aside music and
photography, did not mean setting aside
passion. Gligoric dove head first into creating
a designer streetwear clothing company,
starting his independent label back in 1999,
and later three more, selling his brands in
places such as Tokyo, L.A., New York, Paris
and Copenhagen.
“Specifically, when I started with clothing,
it was war time and I was involved in the
revolution by printing anti-regime tees...but
that’s another long story!” says Gligoric, “But,
what I learned from all that conflict is that
there are no good or bad people - it’s wrong
to think that. Every person has their value, and
as photographer I learned to recognize it.”
Gligoric, having met success with the
fashion industry, took...the next logical step?
“I am now a #1 dog breeder of French
Bulldogs,” Gligoric laughs.
That’s right, Gligoric now owns Punk Rock
Stars Kennel, where he and his team lovingly
breed dogs such as the Dogue de Bordeaux
and Boston Terrier, and have buyers coming
from 50 different countries, with many
celebrity clients in the mix.
