Christian Appel, Weinberg 2008Christian calls himself a “hippie fop,” decked out in an outfit in which each piece has a story. The scarf belongs to a friend, the jacket was his father’s in the ‘60s, the boots were his uncle’s in the ‘70s, and the jeans were bought by his aunt in Germany. The skinny tie and sweater are both from the Salvation Army, while the shirt [that Christian admits is sized for a young boy] is by Dior and was found at Unique Petite. Christians loves fashion and has a big problem with consumerism; so, he only purchases old clothing. But he feels that no matter what you are wearing, fashion is a fun, creative outlet.
