In the latest box office smash “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl’ Johnny Depp’s character had a very distinctive look. He had wild hair, tight fitting gypsy styled clothing and a drunken smoke filled stare in his eyes. When asked who Johnny’s influence was for the character, he said Keith Richards, from the legendary band The Rolling Stones. The same counts for our Man on the Street, David Hogan. Hogan may not have gold teeth and a bottle permanently placed in his hand at all times. He does have an all out 1970s rocker chic look that is as authentic as his inspiration. He was spotted wearing a maroon leather jacket, tight fitting jeans, brown suede cowboy boots, a green shirt and a belt with many studs to finish off an outfit which is one half Rolling Stone one half The Strokes. With a mop of curly hair framing his face and a stack of music books in his hand, this 21-year-old music industry major from San Francisco, who loves to play guitar, is this week’s “Man on the Street.”

The Northeastern News: The News spotted you wearing a killer leather jacket which made you stand out. Who or what influenced how you are dressed today?

David Hogan: Keith Richards is a big influence on me. Most of those old ’60s rockers as well. I watch old video tapes of them and that mostly caters to my style, that is what I look for.

The News: Do you think music is a big influence in fashion right now?

Hogan: Well, modern musicians all dress in just T-shirts and jeans, there is really no fashion involved. The old musicians definitely did. All the old glam rockers dressed as individuals, but it may be over the top to a certain extent. Like some bands right now, The Ronettes or the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s I think their music sucks, but people still think they are hip so it pushes the music and the clothes.

The News: Is there any particular band right now that attributes to the way you dress?

Hogan: The Strokes are pretty cool. They were pretty big when I was here as a freshman. When I saw them, I said, ‘Wow these guys are just what I’m talking about, the clothes, the music, it was good.’

News: Is there a look that you feel very comfortable wearing first thing in the morning?

Hogan: I just stick to the basics, jeans. I don’t have that many clothes, so I just go with what fits. There is no doubt that I am tall and skinny so I do have to plan what I am going to wear and accentuate that. You gotta flaunt it if you got it.

The News: Where do you shop?

Hogan: I don’t shop much. This jacket I bought in Camden Market in London and the boots my brother bought me out in L.A. I usually shop low end in thrift shops back home such as Wasteland.

The News: You spent a semester abroad in Italy and a week in London, did you come back with any style tips?

Hogan: They are hip. They are definitely more prepared there. They are really into jeans, a lot of denim. I saw some really nice Levi’s over there, Levi’s is a San Francisco company, but it’s worn more over there. I will wear what looks good. This leather is a woman’s jacket.

The News: Do you think women’s clothing is cut better or men’s? Hogan: Oh, women’s by far. It seems like clothing for guys is very utilitarian.

The News: This week starts a month-long, four-country spring fashion month in New York, Paris, London and Milan. Is there any look you are interested in trying for the new season?

Hogan: Not really, I will wear what I can pull off. My hair is big and I can’t style it so, I can’t look like a New York hipster. But some guys can’t pull off the way I dress, so it is a trade-off.
