Quad Style: Connor Fieweger
Can you introduce yourself to our readers?
Yuh, I’m Connor, a 3rd year physics major. I like to write, serve beverages, and act/sing/dance, so most of my RSOs revolve or have revolved around that.
I'm wearing a white button shirt from Uniqlo, a cardigan from Forever 21, joggers from I forget where, not-meme Timberlands with panda socks (hehe), and the black coat was inherited. This outfit I think actually works much better with pants that have a belt, but I guess I was feeling excitable that day.
How would you describe your personal style?
50% contemporary street/loungewear, 25% Catholic school dress code, 25% miscellaneous.
“...my relationship to fashion has definitely changed over time. I feel like I’d be hard pressed to say that it is ever not changing, really.”
Where do you find style inspiration?
I think a lot of my style comes out of just what I feel most comfortable in, and that includes everything from aesthetics to the outfit being functional. I’ll consider an outfit from a lot of different angles such as appearance or layering for weather or whether or not I have pockets to see if I really like it. Also sometimes A$AP Rocky.
The red shirt I took from my dad that I think he got from an actual event and he hasn’t said anything (yet) and the blue jean joggers are from Uniqlo.
Where do you like to shop?
Uniqlo, Topman, JCrew, Banana Republic, Ragstock, and also Forever 21 has a lot of stuff worth searching through their clearance section for.
Do you have any fashion regrets?
Nah. I had a really bad haircut in like 4th grade, but that was more SuperCuts’ fault than mine.
What is your relationship to fashion? Has it changed over time?
At the moment I think my relationship to fashion is right where I want it to be in that I have been actively considering fashion in my day-to-day life for long enough that I’ve established a core wardrobe that suits me.
With respect to how I’ve gotten to where I’m at: yes, my relationship to fashion has definitely changed over time. I feel like I’d be hard pressed to say that it is ever not changing, really. That said, I’ve definitely come a long way from high school where the dress code was such that I basically just wore a sweater over a polo most every day.
Why is fashion important to you?
I wear clothes every day so I can’t help but feel like it should be important.
