In 2001, Curtis was a key part of the launch of KING Magazine, one of the first international men’s magazines created for African American young men. The magazine featured iconic, strong women such as Janet Jackson, Tyra Banks, Lil Kim and Serena Williams on its covers. As Senior Market Editor for KING, Curtis focused on building the fashion content with each issue and worked closely with several noted fashion photographers who helped make his vision a realization. Other editors at Harris Publications noticed Curtis’ work with KING (a part of Harris). Soon, he worked as a fashion consultant with additional publications under the Harris umbrella to help elevate its fashion.
With his unique eye for coordination and style, plus a plethora of fashion contacts, Curtis combined the worlds of men’s high fashion and premium streetwear seamlessly through his work at KING. In 2005, KING was named the No. 1 men’s magazine at the newsstand, outselling the “lad mags” of the era. The following year, Curtis would once again make history as Fashion Director with the launch of CLIK Magazine, the first African American LGBTQ fashion publication to be distributed internationally.
Curtis’ visual stylings helped to shape a generation by further bridging the gap between streetwear and high fashion, representing inclusivity at the newsstands and on the pages of magazines. Curtis was doing what others had not done before and making history. fake watches
