They did a series of photos shoots including ones on a yacht in Annapolis, Md., at a pool party at the Hess Mansion in Allentown and with motorcycles at the Lehigh University lookout in Bethlehem. “Each photo shoot showed a different lifestyle,” Jackson says. “We want it to be an edgy, lifestyle brand.” The hip-hop violin duo Black Violin, which performed at Musikfest gave the line exposure when the members wore Juskel shirts at a Los Angeles concert, created an 8 part series titled “Redefined” showcasing a Juskel tee shirt with the signature logo on “Behind the Music.” “That was huge,” Davis says. Now operating out of a small office on Hamilton Street in Allentown, Pennsylvania they are debuting their third collection, called Blue & White Rain. “The clothing speaks for itself,” Jackson says. “Our long-term goal is to get Juskel across the nation.” Designer: Juskel Model: Vince Wimberly Jr. Photographer: Jeff Levy of Stylography Stylist: Larissa Favier of Stylography W W W.
