Converse Advertorial
I designed the layout of this advertorial from mock up to final. This advertorial, only created to appear in FLAUNT, presents the launch of the Jack Purcell sneaker from Converse. The special velcro strap of the shoe was incorporated into the advertisement by using an actual three dimensional strap the reader can pull back to open a flap, revealing a hidden advertorial booklet. There were two designed versions of the booklet but only one went to print. The cover of the magazine also features a velcro strap wrapping around the side, which holds the magazine shut.
