Quentin draws inspiration for his style from various sources, including his girlfriend, who is a stylist. He shared, "She influenced me and introduced me to different brands and styles. I try to stay authentic to what I like, and I want my style to be a representation of myself." This authenticity is evident in his carefully curated outfits, reflecting his personal tastes and individuality.

When it comes to gameday fit preparation, both at home and away, Quentin takes various factors into account. He shared, "I like to base it on the weather and what my vibe is that week. I switch up my looks pretty often, so it just depends on what I'm in the mood to wear." This flexibility and adaptability allow him to experiment with different styles and create unique looks for every game.
