Taxanah, 24

“I’m wearing an asymmetric y2k top, vintage duck head skirt, belly chains, thrifted pearls/bangles & extra high top Converse with a fun patchwork print! Also makeshift bows from shoes laces, fishnet, and lace. With this look my makeup is definitely gyaru inspired. 80s music/fashion icons like Strawberry Switchblade, Lene Lovich, or Nina Hagen inspire me to play more with accessorizing and hair. What inspires my overall style the most, though is probably my best friend: my sewing machine! My favorite pieces are things I accidentally piece together after playing around with cute funky fabrics I find while thrifting.”

L Olivier, 25

“I am wearing Marc Jacobs shirt & bag, Heydari dress, Gothic Renaissance shoes, silver accessories made and collected by my mother, and fake Dolce & Gabbana glasses. I started playing dress up in my grandmas closet and never stopped. I look to the street, my mom, Iggy Pop, and Dragon’s Lair for inspiration.“
