Looklyn: Molten street style

By Johnny Cirillo

Personal style isn’t the same thing as fashion. It’s … more personal. It’s rooted in self, an outward expression of attitude, vibe, swag, panache, aspiration, time and place. In this semi-regular series called Looklyn, we hold a mirror up to the borough to show us how we dress now … and what it tells us about who we are.

Here, photographer Johnny Cirillo introduces us to [checks notes] lava girl, who was off to get her septum pierced. Read more about her below.

Name: lava girl
Age: 20
Where are you heading?: To get my septum pierced!
Fashion inspo: Paris Hilton
About the ‘fit: Fur pink coat from a store called Daniels Leather on Orchard St. The shirt and pants I made! Painted hot pink flames coming from the bottom of the pants so they look like they are on fire. Painted “lava” on my tank top because I’m lava girl now! Just recently dyed my hair pink. It used to be blonde so now everything is hot hot hot.
About me: I live in Brooklyn and travel around the world I love street style fashion and thrifting!
