Video Sidewalk Style: Hunting the Fashionable Male

By Lucia Abramovich , Alejandro Salinas

Maybe it’s just us (Rachel doesn’t seem to have a problem), but it seems like there’s a dearth in this city when it comes to stylish men. In fact, finding a man with an interesting take on fashion feels a bit like hunting down the yeti—you’ve heard it exists, but its presence eludes you. Don’t get us wrong: Washington has plenty of sharp-looking guys. But they’re mostly dressed in suits or wearing blazers or khakis or zzzz . . .

Luckily, we spotted our sartorial yeti along the U Street, Northwest, corridor. His name: Dante Collins, a student at Howard University. Check out our video to see Dante’s outfit and to find out why you won't spot him wearing clothes with prominent labels.

There’s no lack of stylish men in DC - they’re just all gay. The challenge is finding a straight man who thinks beyond the standard uniform of jeans and a button down.
