Name: Maude Valet | Age: 22 | What: Student, studying interpreting and translation while also completing an internship NZTC International | Where from: France | Wearing: Maude’s shiny Dotti boots caught our eye as she breezed past on a chilly Wellington morning. A French vision, she kept herself cosy in an H&M jacket and April77 jeans bought while living in France, while accessorising the look with a scarf from local Cuba Street store Moah. Her Desigual bag was a gift-with-purchase, which she loved as it added a great splash of texture to her look. Describe your style: “My Mother says I dress ‘conservative’ but I like to think I’m just old-fashioned.”
Name: Jack Delgado | Age: 29 | What: Animator | Where from: Dunedin, now living in Mt Cook | Wearing: Warmth, style and structure were on Jack’s agenda as he made his way through the bustling Wellington CBD. His jacket and infinity scarf (or snood) were from Witchery Man, with pants from Mandatory and shoes from Julius Marlow off Lambton Quay. Jack’s Hills Hats newsboy cap was the perfect stylish addition on a cold autumn day. | Describe your style: “A good fit is important. If I find a store that sells men’s XS I will shop there as it’s hard to find men’s garments in small sizes.”
Name: Sarah Bracey | Age: 22 | What: Student studying law and history | Where from: Masterton, also now living in Mt Cook | Wearing: Sarah’s soft brown Karen Walker coat instantly caught FishHead’s attention in the swarm of black-clad Wellingtonians. She paired her coat with brown leather Ziera boots, Glassons headband, and knock-off Guy Laroche bag bought on a trip to Kuala Lumpur. To add a pop of colour to her outfit, Sarah rocked a classic red lipstick by Revlon, called ‘Wine with Everything’. Of course. | Describe your style: Classic, bohemian and lots of earthy tones.
Name: Kirk Sawrey | Age: 18 | What: Youth worker | Where from: Newtown | Wearing: Seeing a fashionable kid on the street, FishHead naturally decided to approach him for a photo. But after having a chat to Kirk, what we really appreciated was his passion for buying only second-hand clothes and his knack for putting them together. Pairing his olive jacket with an olive-checked shirt added depth to the jacket, and soft brown pants complemented them nicely. | Describe your style: Reuse, recycle!
