Lifestyle 27The Reykjavík Grapevine
Issue 03— 2021
Anthony Hoang Duy Nguyen (18) is
a highschool student who plans on
studying fashion design.
Wearing:
• Mesh shirt from AAH Midnight
Club
• Pants from Black Tai
• Shoes from New Rock
• Jewellery from eBay

Describe your style in 5 words:
Goth. Clean. Chic. Ok, I honestly
don’t know other than that.
Maybe a little bit different?
I try not to follow trends. Oh,
and no fast fashion. Burn those
places down.
Favourite stores in Reykjavík:
I honestly don’t shop in Reykjavjík
much—I shop online. Everything
I’m wearing right now was bought
online. But if I would shop here, I’d
probably go to vintage shops like
Spúútnik and Fatamarka"urinn.
Favourite piece:
These shoes. They’re iconic. I got
them when I went to Denmark in 2019
and honestly, they’re pretty comfort-
able so they are my everyday shoe.
They’re my babies.
Something I would never wear:
Skinny jeans. They just look uncom-
fortable. Not gonna lie, I used to wear
them a lot and I’m not going to get
rid of those, but I don’t like the look
where it just looks like you have spray
painted your legs. Do you know that
British look where you wear those su-
per skinny jeans with cuts in them?
I’m like guys, that looks horrible. Also,
I would never wear fast fashion.
Lusting after:
I’ve been really into western and
Asian looks right now. I actually just
ordered some western cowboy
boots from New Rock and a Chinese
shirt. I’ve never owned something
Chinese, but I kind of want to show
my culture now. I want to represent
my heritage. I guess I’ve always
been following trends but if we all
did that, we’d all look the same,
so I’ve stopped doing that be-
cause I want to do something
different.
