Baton Rouge-themed outfits for the 15th anniversary of 225

STYLED BY Elle Marie | PHOTOS BY Joey Bordelon | MODELING BY Taylor Wright


For our 15th anniversary, we asked 225 contributing stylist Elle Marie to create one look to symbolically represent Baton Rouge. She surprised us with two.

Ruby represents a 15th anniversary, so each outfit nods to the Red Stick and 225’s birthday with its red hues. But both styles have a distinct story to tell.

The first is polished and preppy, capturing a city 15 years ago that was comfortable in its own traditions but also ready to be on the cutting edge.

The second is bolder, signifying a community redefined by growth and change. We’re no longer afraid to wear mismatched prints, mix unexpected colors or rock statement pieces. We’re confident. We’re edgy. And we’re finding our own voice.
