NEW YORK—In honor of New York City's Fashion Week, NYC-based gay fashion designer BCALLA has become the first fashion designer to debut a collection purely in the context of an adult film. For the avant-garde BCALLA to accomplish this, he teamed up with the NYC-based adult film studio CockyBoys and Colby Keller's 'Colby Does America' project to create this piece of conceptual art like nothing you've ever seen in fashion or porn before. This video serves as the New York entry to 'Colby Does America', a project Keller started, touring all 50 states and capturing his encounters along the way.
CockyBoys and Colby Keller are front in center in the video but Brooklyn nightlife is the glue and sweat that holds the BCALLA Fall/Winter collection together. The BCALLA collection video, directed by Special Agent Ferretti with set design by Michael Burk, employs 1990s cartoon imagery to transport CockyBoys and Colby Keller to a psychedelic sphere where sex is not only a colorful and exuberant experiment but more importantly, is funny.
BCALLA has had his designs embraced by everyone from Lady Gaga to Azelia Banks, and has had his work featured in Dazed & Confused, Sang Bleu and Rolling Stone. Leave it to CockyBoys and Colby Keller to bring the fashion and adult film worlds that much closer together. CockyBoys' exclusives participating in the video fashion show include Tayte Hanson, Levi Karter, Liam Riley, Ricky Roman and Levi Michaels, along with Colby Keller and Love Bailey.
"Why wouldn't we do this," asked Jake Jaxson. "It's creative, fun, gay, and most of all engaging...I think this is just a further example of pop culture and adult film colliding. Recently in fashion, Tom Ford caused a stir because of cross necklace that was in the shape of male genitalia and audience members got a little more than they expected at Rick Owens’ Sphinx fashion show in Paris back in January when four male models strutted out onto the runway dressed in simple ensembles that revealed the models dicks. So I'm proud to support BCALLA in this one-of-a-kind project that will do wonders for bringing adult film out of the dark and into the forefront of pop culture."
Colby Keller said of the collaboration, "Sex is a part of everybody's life. And we're all here because of sex at the very least. So why not make it a part of fashion and art and all those other ways we like to express ourselves? I mean, there's a lot of shame around sex, particularly when it gets graphic when it actually is sex. And there shouldn't be. So this is kind of a way to break that barrier down which I think is a good thing."
