ABRAHAM
You work at Abercrombie & Fitch? What do you do for them? I’m a Stock Associate and Brand Rep.
What does it mean to be a Brand Rep? It’s basically a sales associate, just interacting with customers on the floor.
Are you from Boston? Partially, I grew up in Atlanta for a while before moving back to Boston.
Do you have any style icons? I have so many style icons! But just to name a few, I’d say Pharrell Williams, David Beckham, Kanye West, Andre 3000, & Marc Anthony Green.
How would you describe your personal style? A blend of a high fashion looks, streetwear looks, and a bunch of old-school, retro clothing. I love mixing and match suit pants with sports tees and hoodies. I tend to dress down suits and dress up streetwear. My style really varies day to day.
Tell me a little bit more about what you’re wearing? I love that giant fanny pack! And where did you get your plaid pants and perfectly distressed denim jacket? My outfit is all pieces that I bought at H&M earlier. I couldn’t decide on what to wear all whole week and just put this outfit together maybe like an hour or two before the event. The fanny pack is my go-to bag of choice, I got it at Urban Outfitters. And the jacket is Levi’s that I distressed myself by cutting the waist and the wrist off of the sleeves.
