Bugle: Simple & Classy

Published:Saturday | July 24, 2010 | 12:00 AM

Possibly one of the coolest and calmest artistes, Bugle never allows obstacles to stop him from keeping positive and moving forward.

The fitness buff and dancehall deejay, whose real name is Rory Thompson, believes in upward mobility in the entertainment industry.

Yet, even with his busy schedule and frequent gigs, Bugle made time to sit with the Saturday Life to talk about his fashion savvy.

What is the hottest thing you'd like to see females in this summer?

I love to see the girl them in their shorts, 'cause you know, it's summer!


A summer outfit is not complete without ... ?

Cologne. You know, it's all about smelling fresh, clean and nice for the ladies.


If you were asked to present a prize at an international awards show, what would Bugle wear?

I would definitely keep it clean, you know, in a tuxedo-style jacket. Very classy.


I have a mental attachment to ... ?

Good-quality brands. For me, it's more about the look of the item rather than the brand, because some big brands might make something and it just nuh look too right, and a simple brand will come out with something that looks really good.


I can't live without my ... ?

BlackBerry and the Internet.


Girls like me because I am ... ?

Quiet and down to earth. Plus, I am a good guy!


I am not sure why I bought ... ?

Shoes that I am not sure where to wear them to as yet!


RIP to ... ?

I really cannot bury any fashion item because fashion evolves.


What was the last piece of clothing you bought?

A pair of shoes in Geneva.


Do you have a local designer you admire?

Rick B's and Drenz. Those local brands are bad!


When in Kingston, shop at ... ?

Drenz! Haffi shop at Drenz. Check it out.


Fashion icons?

Voicemail and Raine Seville.


Your style in two words?

Simple. Classy.


My signature style is simple. Bugle is always in a cap.


It is wack when ... ?

Your clothing looks fine but your shoes don't match any part of your clothing! Or when some people have designers making clothing for them out of Burberry prints!


What is the inspiration behind your style?

The look of the clothing I buy is inspiring. I have exquisite taste.


Take them to school?

All right. Make sure that your shoes are always clean. And make sure your shoes and your belt match. For instance, don't wear a black belt with brown shoes.

But never forget, it is OK to mix colours and still look good. Don't wack out the thing!
