In a swirl of theatrical flair and musical nostalgia, Josh Oddity brings electrifying energy to the stage—channeling the spirit of the past with the soul of something wholly his own. For this special EVP performance, Josh dons a one-of-a-kind look from my Worn to Perform collection: a custom oversized top hat and flowing black cloak crafted to amplify his eccentric, enigmatic presence.
The hat, tall and dramatic, is a nod to vaudeville mischief and rock-n-roll rebellion—stitched with intention and built to command. The cloak moves with weight and whisper, shadowing him in mystery while allowing the light to catch every flourish of performance. Together, these pieces transform stagewear into character, costume into ritual—fashion that doesn’t just dress the performer, but becomes part of the performance.
Josh’s set—an unpredictable mix of oldies, “newies,” and original songs—calls for garments that echo his style: playful, storied, and bold. This collaboration was born from that same spirit: honoring the past while rewriting it with your own voice.
