Bryan Boy

Blogger. New York

We've been readers of Bryan Boy's eponymous blog since what feels like it's inception. He's gone from posting from his native Philippines to sitting front row alongside Anna and Grace, having his photo snapped by a fury of photogs—all in a day’s work for Bryan!
We popped by the globetrotting blogger’s new N.Y.C. digs during the midst of Fashion Week and got down to business digging through his colorful closet filled with whimsical Jil Sander prints, gold-capped shoes and D&G embroidered bags. We were enamored with his vast collection of printed tees and trousers, and let us be the first to tell you, this boy has a serious thing for Prada loafers.
We first fell for Bryan after reading his frank musings on fashion, which he describes best, "people go to my site to be entertained; they go there for my personality." However, we've noticed Bryan's blog evolving in a decidedly more mature direction over the past few years, "I used to be crazier, maybe two or three years ago, but I turned thirty [this year]; now it’s time to grow up." In fact, one of the few things that hasn't changed is his signature "Baboosh!" blog sign-off.
As for his head-turning looks? Bryan doesn’t even think twice about it. “Fashion should be fun, spontaneous and frivolous,” he told us. For a guy who shoots, writes and edits his own content (without an assistant or intern, may we add!), there’s just “no time” to contemplate outfits, quite the laissez-faire approach to daily dressing for someone constantly being snapped by street-style photogs. But Bryan said it best: “If you’re doing what you love the most, it’s not really work.”

People obsess and over-analyze about fashion too much. To me it’s just clothes. It’s great to have fun and everything but fashion should be fun, it should be spontaneous, and it should be frivolous at times. Sometimes.

If you’re doing what you love the most, it’s not really work. I love what I’m doing, I really do. At the end of the day, if you’re not having fun with what you do, if you’re not doing what you love, then maybe it’s time for you to do something else.

I used to be so allergic to button down shirts. I’m Asian, so I feel like a waiter every time I wear a suit and jacket. But now I’m like, “I can do this.”

My favorite fashion moment is probably in the documentary Unzipped. I was like twelve years old when it came out in like 1994, and Linda Evangelista was screaming to Isaac and Naomi like, “How come Naomi always gets the heels?!”

No one single person is my inspiration, really. Of course there are great people like Anna Dello Russo, but it’s not like I would mold my life to follow their footsteps. There are people I admire, like Anna Wintour, but I don’t really have a style icon.

I used to be crazier, maybe two or three years ago, but I turned thirty [this year]; now it’s time to grow up, time to evolve. I still love all my crazy shit! I’m trying to tone it down, so I’ve been wearing a lot of jackets lately, a lot of basics. I’m not usually a basics person but I find myself thinking, “Wow, I have like, five white shirts.”

My first show was Marc Jacobs three years ago. I’d rather go home after the last show—even going to restaurants takes time—so I’d rather just go home, order online or call delivery.com, and just be in my pajamas.
