What have you been wearing on stage?

*umru ([@umru](https://www.instagram.com/umru/))*
I mainly just wear what I’m most comfortable in, usually loose fitting and dark colors, but I’m trying to get out of that habit a bit. I love extreme proportions, big fan of flared pants and chunky shoes, looking a bit like a cartoon character.

I don’t necessarily think people should be staring up at the DJ in a club, but it is a fun opportunity to show off friends’ designs or anything I might not wear daily. And of course my signature thing now is a cap with headlights—people think it’s just a gimmick but it’s genuinely so useful for DJing sometimes, it can be dark up there!

Do you collaborate with anyone? A stylist? A friend?

*umru* 
Not usually but if I had a stylist it’d be [Elena Fortune](https://elenafortune.com/), he makes those bunny hats you see at every show, and the super wide leg raver-type pants I wear a lot.

Do you ***make*** any special pieces?

*umru*
Not really, those pants Elena made me were 1/1 (for now) though, and Item Label and I [sold a version of my light cap](https://pcmusic.ochre.store/merch/371587-umru-umru-x-itemlabel-sticker-light-cap/related?lang=en_US) with velcro patches earlier this year as merch, I think they’re all gone now sadly.

Where do you *find* stage clothes? Any fav shops?

*umru*
I got the first iteration of my light cap at a thrift store in Chicago in 2019 with [Laura Les](https://www.instagram.com/xxendless_slaughterxx/). Also been wearing this dress shirt a lot that I bought when me and [Petal Supply](https://www.instagram.com/petalsupplyco/) got to play in Tokyo earlier this year, it says “Red Cap Girl” with a picture of a girl with a red cap saying “I want to do something but I don’t know what I want to do. I’m so ready for this…?” and I just feel the same way sometimes. The brand is called [Red Cap Girl](https://www.instagram.com/red.cap.girl/) I assume. Also just love my friends’ merch of course, [Andrewgoestohell](https://soundcloud.com/andrewgoestohell)’s hand-printed “World’s Smartest Dumbass” button down is in heavy rotation, [Club Eat](https://clubeat.nyc/)’s Staff tee, or all the shirts my label [PC Music](https://pcmusic.info/) keeps sending me lol

Where does your sense of style come from? Any special sources of inspiration?

*umru*
I’m sure people have done it before me but my idea for the light cap came from seeing Pig play in complete darkness holding a flashlight at SOPHIE’s show at Elsewhere around that time. Was a huge vibe. Otherwise I just follow the world’s greatest tastemaker [GRRL](https://twitter.com/GRRLmusic) on Twitter to decide my sense of style for me. I've recently also been experimenting with accessorizing the caps I always wear

Kendrick Lamar wore a bunch of brooches on a Dodgers cap at the Grammy's I think last year, I loved that. I shot some photos with [Jeiroh Yanga](https://www.jeiroh.com/) earlier this year, who very sadly passed away quite recently. He gave me a tiara to wear over a cap which was a super cute idea, I'll always hang on to that now.
