Male Styling

-

After creating my original styling Mood board we reassessed what we wanted our outfits for the photo/video shoot to be and what garments we had available to us and so some of the original items that we were going to include changed. Therefore I created a more specific mood board for both male and female styling. For male styling we decided to keep the vintage style Levi's jeans, clear frame sunglasses and black denim jacket featuring pin badges. However we decided to include a Fred Perry style polo shirt instead of a plain white t-shirt as we thought that this fits in with Northern Soul style much better as polo shirts were a popular item to wear in the Northern Soul scene. We also replaced the black boots with classic cherry red with yellow laces Doc Martens to reference the beginnings of Northern Soul style which included popular Mod trends, such as Dr. Martens.

As this module focus on Northern soul and Sheffield street style I researched the Northern Soul scene in Sheffield during the 1970s and today. Club 60 & The Esquire Club: > A club on Leadmill Road > Was formally Club 60 > Is now The Leadmill > "Club 60 was the life and soul of the Sheffield music scene. It became so popular that it eventually outgrew itself and moved to the site of the Esquire, which is now the Leadmill." > At Club 60, people could hear the latest jazz, R&B and the rapidly-spreading rock 'n' roll. The venue quickly developed a reputation as one of the north's premier talent showcases, where many artists established their careers, including Dave Berry, Frank White and Rod Stewart.

Concept Moodboard

The concept of the shoot is a brother and sister visiting their favourite locations and stores in and around Sheffield to showcase family, whilst including references to Northern Soul and Sheffield street style through the places we visit and the garments we wear. As the brother and sister in the shoot is going to be myself and my brother we are going to visit our favourite street art locations as they are a big element of Sheffield and why we like the city. We are also going to visit our favourite vintage stores, Mooch Vintage and Vulgar Vintage as we both personally love to source our fashion from vintage stores and this is also a big trend around Sheffield and Sheffield street style and a popular trend in general. We are also going to visit Bear Tree Records as my brother in particular likes to collect music on records and we can include Northern Soul music references from here.
