DAPPER ADVISORAkil | Buffalo State College
Akil serves as an Academic Advisor for the Educational Opportunity Program at Buffalo State College. He tells us he believes in a lot of things but being overdressed and over educated is not one of them. His interest in menswear and fine tailoring came about when he started my first internship in graduate school and he was the youngest and only man of color in most of his courses. As he quickly realized that the way you dress says a lot about you, Akil decided that in order to be respected and taken seriously amongst his peers and supervisors, he would dress for the role that he was aspiring for. Akil also runs a blog, Dapper Advisor, through which he inspires other young aspiring professionals to dress well for their body, lifestyle, and career.
ACADEMY STYLEPhillips Exeter Academy
We'd like to welcome "The Exeter Dress Code" from the Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, NH to the Campus Sartorialist team. Though we have focused mostly on college campus style in the past, we are very excited to get to showcase some of the great style we see on students from high school campuses.
The Dress Code is a student-run fashion blog dedicated to showcasing the diverse style of members of the Phillips Exeter Academy community as well as promote their unique self-expression. The blog was founded in the spring of 2012 by Megan Do, Stefan Kohli and Adela Locsin. Since then, the staff has extended, adding three more photographers to its ranks: Alix Hunter, Callan Malone, and Ida Piyale. We had been initially inspired by the idea of starting the a web-based documentation of student’s outfits from another boarding school, specifically, the Hotchkiss School’s "Hotchkiss Lookbook". As students, we noticed there was a lack in comprehensive, visual documentation of diverse student fashion and we sought to fill that gap. Beyond that initial goal however, we hoped to create a document that would help promote a greater sense of community by recognizing and celebrating our peers, displaying their diverse and rich cultures.

University of Houston joins Campus Sartorialist
We'd like to welcome Faith Nguyen as a new Campus Sartorialist at the University of Houston. Faith, an art, film and fashion aficionado, is a Houston native and she is currently studying journalism at the University of Houston. In her pursuit of honing her skills and knowledge of her favorite topics, Faith created the UH Sartorialist street style blog. Faith believes that fashion is an integral part of our lives, as the way we choose to present who we are as well as who we'd like to be. As an advocate for seeing beauty in everyone and everything, Faith chose street style photography as her medium because it shows that style and beauty are not limited to the runways of the fashion capitals or magazines, and are accessible to anyone. Stay tuned for some Houston street style!
