Joe Jonas has been feeling gratitude lately as he prepares to debut a new solo album that he’s already been teasing with the release of the first single “Work It Out.” But before you fully immerse yourself in the 35-year-old singer’s new sound, the Jonas Brother wants to bring a touch of his vintage aesthetic to your fall fashion rotation with the release of his debut clothing collection in collaboration with Scotch & Soda.
As the first brand ambassador for the clothing designer, the “Sucker” artist had the chance to utilize his creativity beyond crafting playlist-essential songs.
“Scotch & Soda let me have creative control and I had the chance to explore colors, prints, styles and references that were really personal to me,” he says in an interview with Billboard. “I always like to tell a story with what I wear.”
That story involved his own personal drawings-turned-graphics with vintage themes from his favorite decade serving as the inspiration.
“I’ve always been influenced by the ’70s and the fashion from those eras, and the fun,” the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper says. “It felt so free, and I wanted that to be reflected in the clothing.”
The new collection includes a mix of vintage and sports-inspired pieces ranging from bold prints to everyday layering pieces you can throw on and go. Eagle-eyed fans may also notice Easter eggs that further hint to what you can expect on the new album.
“I carry around this little yellow book with me everywhere I go, and I write down a bunch of quotes and just thoughts for the day,” he explains. “I started to feel quite inspired by some of the ideas that I could stitch some of the quotes in the clothing. There are certain song lyrics that are on the clothes, and it’s just perfect timing.”
