About Fashion Writer Kristopher Dukes

When I was eight I decided I’d be a writer and by age 10 I was publishing — writing, editing, illustrating, and distributing — a muckraking magazine on playground scandals.

I move fast.

And faster still: I co-founded a non-profit publication while I was 16 (Tyro still prints today), and between editing the high school newspaper and participating in televised press conferences for LA Youth, I was twice published in the national Teen Ink, and regularly contributing to local publications — all before I could legally see rated-R movies.

When I was 20, I was published in the bestselling book series Written in the Dirt, I wrote for fashion bible WWD, I was hand-picked to write for one of the largest anti-spyware firms in the world (Enigma Software Group, Inc.), and I had a couple of columns with Top Button, a fashion dot-com with one of the largest subscriber-bases in the business.

Now, still carded to enjoy the trendy blank-tinis that I don’t, my fashion writing has been published on Yahoo! News, Citysearch.com, Fashion Wire Daily, Hearst’s SHOP Etc.com, Trunkt, INKED, and more. And KRiSTOPHER DUKES .com, which began as my online portfolio and morphed into a fashion blog in 2006, has been featured in VOGUE.fr, NY Times.com, and Forbes.com once and WWD twice, along with Japan’s SPUR, and others. I also blog for Top Button, hustle hard in “f**k me” “f**k you” heels, and I –

– Drink far too many soy lattes.
