Philadelphia Street Style: Brittany, off 15th St

Brittany's grandmother taught her how to sew to "keep [her] out of trouble." She's still doing it, making her own shirts, jackets, vests, etc. under the label Dumb Stupid Apparel. The hat in this shot was sewn by her grandmother some eight or so years back. It's still special to her.

Brittany describes her style as "street grunge" and assembles it with a curator's care from thrift store and army-navy surplus store purchases. The boots in this shot were a Salvation Army find. The jeans are from H&M. She "destroyed" them herself and wore them over a pair of long johns. The vest and jacket were both military surplus via Golberg Army-Navy. The sweater underneath she picked up at a thrift store.
