Caught outside Beit and heading to the library, Lucy was killing it on Monday when we snapped her. We here at Felix Fashion appreciate a confident look and Lucy was putting it out in spades with an alternating print block colour look. She told us that she “couldn’t tell” us who her style icon was, which only made us want to know even more! 

Despite term having started a week ago, this was her first time going into the library and she freely admitted that she might only “look around and see how it is”. She also said that she didn’t know “if she was allowed into the library” but that couldn’t stop her - her chosen power outfit adding the confidence to cross boundaries and break some rules! 

Having been here for two years already, Lucy is a major figure at Imperial, a third year Medical Bioscience student, she is even better known on the rugby pitch. President of the Women’s Rugby team she is packing serious punch. Avoid making her angry! 

Her jumper was from Goose and Gander, a small indie fashion label set up by two primary school friends that specialises in unisex hoodies, shirts, and sweatshirts, and was a birthday present. Clearly we all need friends and relatives like Lucy’s to buy us presents! 

Her trousers are from Urban Outfitters, a neat straight leg trouser, easy to look smart in with a nice top or stylishly casual when paired with a jumper. 

Her bag contained a laptop “in case [she] get[s] into the library” and her rugby kit. Her shoes were classic New Balance, well-worn and fun. 

Her blonde hair was scrapped back into a fun mid ponytail that gave her a casual yet chic look that the average Imperial student struggles to embody.
