Tomas, 22: “I like soft, rounded shapes and thick materials. When it comes to designing clothes, what inspires me right now is softness, soft colors, humanity, people’s flaws and insecurities, and especially understanding them.”

Niilo, 20: “Some grey jeans, white t-shirt, ballerinas, big backpack and a furry cap felt good in the morning. If I have to try to find the words to describe what inspires my style, maybe playfulness, mix of masculinity and femininity, expressing yourself and harmony.”

“I’m wearing a shirt from Vain, sleeves I cut off a Marimekko shirt, jeans and denim skirt from Uff, a purple scarf on top and a black scarf as a hoodie. My style inspirations are dark forests, boglands, nature, fall and fall colors. I always try to find fall-like colors and materials. Currently purple is my favorite color.”

“I’m wearing my patch pants, a shirt I put some patches on, my hair up in a mohawk, and accessories. What inspires me: punks, my friends, maximalism. My goal is to look as weird as possible and I diy and thrift all my clothes.”

”All the clothes in the photo are either thrifted or from my friends. I’ve only recently started experimenting with my style more and I’m trying to find clothes that feel like me. I’m inspired by people who break norms and express their character and values through clothing.”

“I’m wearing a vintage Costume National top paired with my trusty DKNY trousers, and even the Illesteva sunglasses are a secondhand find. Everything I’m wearing is thrifted, except for the sneakers. I find a lot of inspiration in comfort and practicality, even in what could be called a kind of boringness. I don’t want my style to look too polished – there has to be a touch of wabi-sabi.”

Priska: “My style is inspired by my friends, my partner, and the goth subculture. When I’m picking out outfits I try to concentrate on a concept or a feeling I want to portray. Todays concept was a rockstar on a walk of shame.”

Matvei: “These days I’m uninspired in regards to fashion. I just wear things that I already own, or things that I can borrow.”

“I’m wearing my old trusted pants from a few years ago I had since forgotten. The thrifted, worn-out Camel belt is fixed with a few ropes, on the verge of breaking. I borrowed the t-shirt from a friend who designed the logo. The shoes are also from a friend and the sunnies from my grandma. Colors and hues are important to me and the beauty of their combinations inspires me. Patterns and prints too.”

“I’m wearing a vintage slip skirt, two white tops, a lace scarf, an old camera bag with a golden fish pendant, and grey ballerinas – every piece is second hand. I love the juxtaposition of minimal vintage pieces and playful accessorizing. At the moment I’m most inspired by clean silhouettes, objects found in nature and exploring the use of discarded items.”

“I’m wearing a Adidas hoodie thrifted in Ivalo that I tied a lilac ribbon around, a skirt from Vinted, glasses from Dallapé Park, Vagabond shoes thrifted in Tampere, and bag thrifted in Rovaniemi. My style is influenced by 60s womenswear and by queer people and the media I consume. I think about movement and the silhouette when I choose an outfit.”

“Everything I‘m wearing is thrifted either in Helsinki or Berlin. The hat and the sunglasses were gifted to me by family. For me the most thrilling thing is finding unexpected combinations of second hand pieces from different decades and parts of the world. That way it never gets boring. It‘s a bit like mushroom hunting!”

“I’m wearing my dad’s old sunnies and my mom’s scarf. The t-shirt that says: everything is your fault, I found in a book shop in Sweden. My dress and skirt are things I’ve borrowed from my friends. We have a sort of shared closet because we all find clothes and dressing up exciting but don’t want to buy more stuff. Seeing them style the clothes that I’m bored of in a new way or just getting to go through their closets is something that inspires me.”

“My style is heavily inspired by fairies, music, and my friends. My priority when building an outfit is establishing a ’fairy spirit’. Most if not all of my clothes are second hand, as is this outfit. I’ve found most of my staple gems from UFF. I recycle clothes as well, these fur-hand warmers used to be socks from Saiturinpörssi. My leg warmers are also from there and my shoes are from pahis.fi.“
