David Li said he always wanted to incorporate overcoats into his outfits, but didn’t think they suited his body shape. The first-year biology student has, however, managed to find a similarly-lengthed replacement in an elongated hoodie, which he said fits him better.

Li’s necklace is modeled after the chemical structure of his favorite neurotransmitter – serotonin. A friend gifted him the necklace after first spotting an ad for it on Facebook.
