Style on Campus #2

KCL people prove to be effortlessly fashionable and it's always a pleasure for us to scout the best style on campus. This is the 2nd in our Style on Campus series and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did. 

By the way guys, the Tab branded us as the Dolce & Gabbana of unis across the UK. Pretty decent, don't you think? Check it out here. 

King’s – Dolce & Gabbana

Largely from abroad, dripping with money and smelling like the fine leather-bound books in Dumbledore’s office, the prestigious alumni of KCL are cut from a finer cloth. The King’s brand is just as important as the degree that comes with it. After all, your grandfather will eventually stop judging your Sociology degree if Prince William keeps turning up at the Maughan.

Just like Dolce & Gabbana, KCL’s in-house style is exotic, composed and enviable – even when you’re being carried out of Walkabout on a Thursday morning.

Now, back to our fashion stars of the week:  

Name: Callie Phillipson
Course: 1st year Philosophy
Wearing: Eastpak backpack, Honour Over Glory Hat, Second Hand boots
Gimme some 'meaning': 'I only really ever wear black with maybe a splash of colour (hence the backpack and the hat)' - perfect start to cold London weather outfits we'd say

Name: Maria Choinska
Course: 2nd year Law
Wearing: Carolina Herrera bag, Burch boots, OPI nail polish
Gimme some 'meaning': 'I like mixing casual style with something smart.' - Here we have a real deal lawyer in the making/model showing us how it's done. For real.

Name: Henry Stockdale
Course: 3rd year Philosophy
Wearing: He just couldn't remember where anything was from. Too much Philosophy, we guess.
Gimme some 'meaning': 'Wearing what I'm wearing for comfort'

Name: Sarah
Course: 1st year English
Wearing: Zara jumper, Zara bag, Ark Clothing boots, very cool nail polish (the shade is one of this fall's INs)
Gimme some 'meaning': 'I usually wear mostly black so I thought I'd inject some colour into my wardrobe.'

 

Name: Craig Keltie
Course: 3rd year English
Wearing: Adidas jacket, Nike trainers, Drappier cap, earring he found in a swimming pool
Gimme some 'meaning': 'Fashion is transient'. Totally.

Name: Annie Birchall
Course: 1st year French
Wearing: TUK shoes, Boohoo dress
Gimme some 'meaning': 'I like to stand out... in black clothes'.

After this post we guess you can tell that black is the thing. Always has, always will be.
