Stills from the video
Eating Out x Julian Zigerli SS15
GAYLETTER faves Daniel Pitout and Julian Zigerli collaborate on new fashion music video
It’s no secret that we have a very large crush on skater punk Daniel Pitout of grunge outfit Eating Out. We included an interview with him in the very first issue of GAYLETTER Magazine (which you can still read here), and continue to love just about everything he puts out. Now, he’s teamed up with another GAYLETTER fave, menswear designer Julian Zigerli, for a short film coinciding with the latter’s SS15 collection. Titled Life Is One of the Hardest, the film doubles as a music video for Eating Out’s song of the same name, written and recorded exclusively for the fashion collection. Scuzzy and catchy, “Life Is One of the Hardest” the song finds Pitout and the band channeling their characteristic blend of ‘90s punk and grunge to potent effect.
The video, meanwhile, casts Pitout as the most well-dressed delivery boy of all time, skating his way through town in a number of vibrant outfits from the SS15 collection before finally arriving to drop off food to a table of what appear to be very impatient model boys (it’s ok, we would be too if Pitout was our neighborhood dispatch). It’s a fun, colorful, stylish clip that’s basically a mash-up of our favorite things, so you have absolutely no excuse not to check it out (and cop choice items from Zigerli’s collection, while you’re at it):
