About Me

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, barely old enough to legally enjoy the trendy _____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 February 2006, has been featured in VOGUE.fr, NY Times.com, and Forbes.com once and WWD twice, along with Japan’s SPUR, and others.

What is the next...

Purchase you’ll make?

Iced Starbucks double-shot, sugar-free.

Trend in design?

Smart sex. Plenty of people make it drama, but so few take it seriously...

Car you’d like to own?

A driver, if only to make the streets safe from my driving like a quarter-Asian, 13-year-old boy getting a blow job.

Big step you’d like to make?

Paying someone to update this profile.

Fad that will fade?

C-listers slapping their names on made-in-China clothing. I don't even know who half these blond bots with jeans out are.

Vacation you’ll take?

Hmm?

Thing you’re going to fight for?

"Fight"? Wouldn't that involve sweating? Sounds vulgar.

Secret that’s going to leak?

I own a pair of sneakers. But my New Balances are like models who don't do cocaine -- no one believes they exist.

Life you’ll lead?

I've just started this one.

Fountain of youth?

Working passionately. And needles in 90210.

Book you’ll read?

Something by Ayn Rand, Henrik Ibsen, Edith Wharton, Nietzsche... Or Danielle Steele. And here you thought I spend evenings pouring over Vogue or W or something.

Thing that will change the world?

Independence.

Guilty-pleasure food in which you’ll indulge?

Food? Guilt? I know neither.

Person to whom you’ll say, “I love you”?

My MacBook. It's always been supportive of my career, and doesn't say anything when I visit YouPorn.com.
