RIO visits the showroom

Music is one of the driving forces behind the inspiration and design in Elvis Jesus. From a constant soundtrack of tunes playing at the office and tee names hinting at our favorite songs and musicians, to graphics translating epic bands into intriguing graphic designs, we full incorporate music into our EJ philosophy.

With that in mind, we find great pleasure in collaborating with musicians and artists, either working together to design a tee that reflects their aesthetic, or by featuring emerging artists wearing our latest Elvis Jesus collections. RIO, a Manchester rapper, is one of those burgeoning talents that we're thrilled to be collaborating with.


This week RIO stopped by our Elvis Jesus showroom to check out our Pre-SS13 collection and pick a few choice styles for his upcoming gig this weekend. A hardworking and driven musician, RIO chatted with us while he browsed through our couture collection of tees, choosing his favorites to take with him. Obviously a man of style, he told us much of his fashion influence comes from growing up around fashion designers, as he expertly mixed our tees with limited edition EJ jackets to find the perfect style mix.


It's always a pleasure to work with such a variety of talented people, and RIO is no exception. We can tell he's going to go far, and we look forward to many future collaborations with him.
