Who: Giovanni Fraga, 19, of North Hollywood, a student at Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and part-time, in-store visual display worker at Rampage, Fashion Square in Sherman Oaks.

His Bag: An arm pack.

How Long He’s Been Wearing It: Five months.

What’s Inside: “My pager, a roll of cash in the side compartment, my Chap Stick, my driver’s license, my inhaler [Fraga has asthma]. When I go to clubs, I usually carry my friends’ compacts or their lipsticks.”

Been There, Tried That: “You can wear them around your arm or your leg. I tried it on my leg, and it’s pretty uncomfortable.”

Other Bags He Carries: “Usually a side bag with a lot of compartments for everything else, including glasses and drawings. I don’t like backpacks.”

Is the Arm Pack a Trend?: “A lot of people don’t like it because of its size. It’s a little bit trendy.”
