Los Angeles stylist and model Aleali May is featured on the cover of L’Official Singapore’s February 2019 issue, marking the second time she’s landed an a L’Officiel cover. Her first cover story for the magazine was with L’Officiel Brasil in September 2018.
While Vashtie was the first woman to co-design an Air Jordan silhouette, May was the first to partner with the brand on a silhouette offered in unisex sizes. May dropped her first Jordan in October 2017 and followed up with a second silhouette featuring a “Viotech” color story and faux-fur tongue in December 2018.
Commenting on the momentous occasion, May explained, “I just wanted to give praise to the City that raised me, Los Angeles, while fusing streetwear and sportswear in a basketball shoe. With it being unisex, I wanted to have it available for men and women because I wear both’s clothing. It also creates room for anyone to rock them with their personal style or if they’re a fan of the L.A. Kings or Raiders.”
The shoot is themed on luxury with May sporting looks by Gucci, Moncler, Valentino and Hermès, among others. The editorial was photographed by Lenne Chai and styled by Evon Chng.
