DeMarre Carroll fashionable in fashion’s capital

The Nets are a pretty fashionable bunch, from Jeremy Lin’s bench eyewear to Rondae Hollis-Jefferson’s coat collection and D’Angelo Russell’s strategically torn skinny jeans. There may be some slackers. (You know who you are ... Joe.)

But at the top of the list —and now recognized by the Times “Men’s Style” column— is DeMarre Carroll, who describes his style as going for that “‘in the room’ kind of looks.”

He says it all started with his mom dressing him for school.

“Growing up, my mother always used to put us in loud sweatsuits and everything matched down to the shoes,” he said.
