I like changing my ‘flaws’ into a statement. I didn’t feel pretty until I made unconventionality my style. Be weird and proud.
We would like to thank you for supporting Alexandra Petra in this years competition. Your participation allows us to empower the Elton John AIDS Foundation in their mission to end AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
What makes your style stand out?
An inability to feel awkward in non conventional fashion. I alternate between many conventional styles, but I’m trying to gradually get weirder. The strange makes more of an impression. Current issue is not having the means.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I would love to be able to display designers’ hard work, and with my prior acting/expression work I feel I could give them that extra character and really portray that vision.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would fix my car; I joined the Air Force to get out of poverty and escape my small town where I worked as a mechanic. Now I have no time to fix it and most of my money goes to paying a shop to fix it. So I have no car and walk to work. But I don’t want a new one; it has stories and is a dream car of mine. No matter what I’m finding a way to get it on the road.
