Fashion Icon: Leah Stevenson ’18
January 16, 2015
Q. How do you decide what to wear in the mornings?
A. I usually just mix and match my previously arranged outfits. But during the winter I just wear a jacket, a t-shirt, and a pair of jeans that somewhat work together. If the colors don’t work, I try something else.
Q. Who is your biggest fashion inspiration?
A. I’d say the band The Clash. They are one of my favorite bands and I loved the look they had. I think their style has influenced me a lot.
Q. Where do you usually shop?
A. I usually shop at The Alley Chicago, Belmont Army Navy Surplus, and thrift stores.
Q. What accessory can you not leave the house without?
A. I can’t ever leave the house without my wallet chain.
Q. What is your go to outfit?
A. My go-to outfit would probably be my leather jacket, my white Ramones sleeveless shirt, my ripped jeans, and Doc Martens.
Q. How would you describe your style?
A. I’d say my style is similar to the late 70’s/early 80’s rock scene, like the leather jackets, ripped jeans and colored hair.
Q. How had your style evolved?
A. My style used to be baggy t-shirts and the same pair of jeans every day. I used to not really care about the clothes I was wearing; it just had to be black. Also, I could only wear a ponytail. I didn’t have to, but for some reason my standards wouldn’t allow me to wear my hair down. Now I’d say I have a wider variety of clothes to choose from and my clothes aren’t so dull anymore.
