How would you describe your personal style? 

A bit all over the place at the moment... “Lazy-Trying”... High-Low-Low... Like, does it count as dressing up if I pile on my vintage gold jewelry with my ripped-to-shreds hoodie and hardware store camos?

What’s your favorite way to style vintage in the fall?

One piece at a time. Whatever I’m feeling — oversized leather biker jacket, surplus cargos, Issey Miyake coat/dress —  I lean into and wear it a million ways for a million days, till I’m over it. Same as food, although I will probably never be over an evening at Roman’s, Cervo's, or Altro Paradiso with friends…

What vintage item is essential to your fall wardrobe?

An oversized trench. One can never have too many. Burberry and Dior Homme are my faves.  

What’s one thing you wish people would stop buying new?

Vintage classics. At Display Copy we call them Vintage Essentials…. the leather jacket, the white button down, the trench coat, the oversized blazer… There's a solid list of wardrobe staples that are far better crafted before than now. Why buy new?

Who’s your ultimate vintage style muse? 

Sade for pulled together and Lauren Hutton for giving zero fucks.

What’s inspiring your style right now, at the moment?

The beautiful creatures that hang out at my local coffee shop. Rita & Maria in Bed Stuy. 

Is there a vintage piece you’re currently on the hunt for?

I’m on the hunt for a tailor to make better use of the vintage pieces I already have. Any recos out there, DM me!
