Shoots: Strictly by Jason Evans

First up in a series looking at influential fashion shoots past and present is Strictly by Jason Evans.

Strictly, shot by photographer Jason Evans and Stylist Simon Foxton, appeared in i-D magazine in 1991. The shoot depicts young black men dressed in traditional English clothing.

‘Strictly was a weird mixture of macho clothes and quite effeminate clothes. Sportswear-based but classical English things, turned around. The syntax of clothes was completely upside down, and then, worn by black people, it was a new vision of Britain. We were trying to break down stereotypes.’
