From the suburbs of Rhode Island, Luke O’Neill didn’t grow up with many fashion influences in his life. He never had a craving to dress nicely until he could buy his own clothes. His favorite clothes have been from thrift shops and vintage stores. His imagination gets to run wild when thrifting for clothes and matching different garments. He has always wanted to craft his own look and mixing and matching clothes while thrifting allows him to do that.
The philosophy that if something isn’t broken, there’s no need to fix it is something Luke strongly believes in. His sense of style comes from this ideal of not throwing away old fashioned ideas. He thinks that there are many people his age that think all ideas from the past need to be changed. Luke thinks otherwise and believes that we should sort through old and vintage pieces and keep the good ones. That is exactly how he dresses, combining old clothes with new ones to create a unique while also classic personal style. This sense of style is subject to change for every time he undergoes some sort of personal change. He like his clothes to reflect his personality always.
His current style could be described as classic, clean, and simple while also risky with the introduction of some bolder statement pieces. He can usually be found wearing a nice pair of pants with a soft button down shirt. For more formal interviews and events, he opts for a suit without a tie. In terms of accessorizing, Luke tends to stay away from jewelry except for the occasional chain. In terms of the trends Luke has kept up with, his favorite is the old baggy pants with a sweater combination from this past winter. One trend he will never incorporate into his wardrobe is the preppy look.
Luke’s interest in the fashion realm extends beyond clothing as well, as he has a deep interest in NFTs. In fact, Luke is itching to get dinner with Kanye West and ask him about the future of intersecting clothing and NFTs. From the suburbs of Rhode Island, to Boston, to Paris, and potentially to a dinner with Kanye, Luke O’Neill’s fashion journey is constantly evolving and he is more than ready to soak in as much as he can from the style around him in his current environment of the streets of Paris.
