This behind-the-scenes teaser, captured on an iPhone, offers a glimpse into an upcoming documentary as enriching and multi-faceted as the man it chronicles.

The film begins by tracing Maurice Malone's formative years in the vibrant fashion landscape of the 1980s. It moves on to reveal his role as a cornerstone in the emergence of Urban Streetwear, known in the '90s as Hip-Hop Fashion.

Transitioning to the later stages of his illustrious journey, the documentary offers insights into his entry into high-end runway shows and Designer Collections from the mid-'90s to the early 2000s. Peoples Pride designer and owner Carlyle Hanson, who initiated his career as an intern with Maurice, encapsulates this era by stating, "In the 90s, Maurice was the face of hip-hop in fashion."

The saga culminates in the 2010s with the launch of the Williamsburg Garment Company. Initially a one-man brand that Maurice operated alone for its first five years, this venture has now evolved into the top denim alterations specialist in the USA, boasting a fully staffed operation, producing custom-made and American-made jeans.
