Chicago disco-funk musician and activist Ric Wilson has a personal style inspired by vintage, his international travels and people he's met across different eras of his life. He's performed alongside acts like Chromeo, Black Pumas, DRAMA, Yellow Days and more. Wilson sat down with Vocalo for our "Getting Dressed" series to talk all things style, share takeaways from living in London and give us the breakdown of how he packs for international tours. This segment was hosted, cut and mixed by Morgan Ciocca. It was engineered and produced by Dave Miska, and edited by Cassie Walker Burke. Special thanks to Mendy Kong and Jessica Martens.
