Client — Cortiez [Concept]
Role — Art Director / Designer
Project — Paid In Full Collection
This self-initiated capsule collection explores the relationship between Corteiz and the cult film Paid in Full, merging cinematic storytelling, 80s fashion and modern streetwear.
Drawing inspiration from iconic scenes and characters, I reimagined their distinctive, luxury-inspired outfits through a collection of modern streetwear pieces, combining premium materials, tailored silhouettes and applied Cortiez detailing.
Brand founder Clint has often paid homage to Paid in Full, referencing the film as a reflection of his own rise. This connection provided a natural foundation for a collection that celebrates the shared spirit of ambition, independence and cultural influence.
Each piece incorporates Corteiz branding, custom embellishments and subtle references to the film, bringing together the unmistakable identity of the brand with the aspirational style of its characters.
