Gen Frederick
Senior, nursing
“I try to mix as many colors as I can, but not too much; I try to get away from the standard black and gray. I try not to be super flamboyant, but I definitely don’t want to look like everyone else.”
Frederick usually visits Old Navy and the local shop Free Radicals to add pops of color to her wardrobe.
Favorite Trend: “I really dig leopard print and I’m really a big fan of 1950s and 1960s retro style. I think the reason I like my style so much is I’m a nursing student and I have to wear scrubs to school every day, so I don’t get to wear a lot of my clothes in general. I try to wear what I can when I can.”
Least Favorite Trend: “The super, super saggy pants on guys — not my favorite. Some things look better on some people. The big, big boots don’t look good on me, but they look great on other people.”

Lucien Daigle
Second-year graduate student, voice
“Most days I’ll dress like a metrosexual man. I’ll wear a pair of pinstripe slacks and a button-down shirt.”
Lucien mixes subtle prints with goofy tees that read “Lost in the music,” but also likes the retro look. He owns a straw fedora.
Favorite Trend: “I like scarves and hats a lot. I don’t follow too many fashion trends, I kind of go my own way with things. I like to be comfortable, I won’t wear anything that’s too tight or way too baggy. “
Least Favorite Trend: “I don’t like when emo pants are way too tight. I’m talking about the guys who wear them too tight, it’s a little weird. And then they sag them and I wonder if they can walk.”
