Ron Torres – Who: Onset coordinator/filmmaker/editor for Bodybuilding.com and dabbler in the film industry and comedy theater. His Style Is: “It’s like Jazz history—made of many different periods and lots of experimentation. It’s a greater form that I vary within that can only be appreciated after you step back and see the whole history of it.” Favorite Trend of the Moment: “At the moment, it feels like we’re getting a clean slate and going back to the hallmarks of fashion. I’m at the point where I’m ready to jump into a suit and feel more tailored with a 50s look.” Worst Personal Style Decision: “There is no such thing as a fashion disaster. You just need to be patient enough to wait for the day when that ‘disaster’ can be acknowledged as a success.” In His Free Time: “I love going to local coffee shops to write and read…maybe head over to a shopping center to browse the racks, then pick up something from a video rental store.” Thoughts on Women’s Wear: “The most interesting trend I’m seeing is about embracing a masculine aggressiveness while still being a woman—think ‘Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.’” His Style Icon: “Tom Ford, Steve McQueen, James Dean, Marlon Brando, Wes Anderson, David Lynch, and Todd Oldham.” How To Get His Look: “Go to thrift stores. Always think, ‘Can I get this cheaper or make it more interesting?’ Oh, and embrace neon.” Style Advice to the World: “Wake up in the morning and part your hair to a different side. Wake up in the morning and blindly pick two random things out of your closet to wear together. Don’t let how you look control you—YOU control how you look.”
