Style Profile #4: Mike Lukich


Name: Mike Lukich

Profession: Graphic designer by day, musician/writer by night; www.mikelukich.com

Locale: Hammond, IN

Favorite shops/labels: H&M, Urban Outfitters, Goodwill and other resale shops, Levi’s (for jeans), dollar stores (for sunglasses)

Fashion influences: Fellow musicians/artists, my wife, superheroes, weather, Andy Warhol minus the wigs, Marc Jacobs if he designed clothes for the military and/or gas station attendants

Local Fashion Scene: Ha ha ha ha ha...uh, utilitarian? Durability and affordability are probably key criteria, for men at least. Hammond and most of northwest Indiana is working class/middle class, so fashion is mostly what you can find at Target. Fashion and culture in general can be described as urban meets suburban, I suppose. Of course, you can always find your garden variety punks, goths, skaters, hip hop dudes and pop star fashionistas, although that’s usually at the mall and they’re usually children. Sophisticates, eccentrics and individuals in fashion are sporadic but they’re probably all people I already know.
