What makes your style stand out?

The most important thing to remember in a world where people are at war with each other, is to understand your position as a soldier of love! I lead with a smile and confidence because i know im attractive and i have the ability to make people stop in their tracks and be happy for a passing moment. I love things like colors, prints, and textures that stand out because it makes me feel like a king. I never walk with my head looking down and look forward to the future, and the next person i meet.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My parents fell in love at a fashion show in Venezuela so ive always fantasized about having a fashion moment. It brings tears to my eyes having people compliment me about how i look and its even better knowing i made someone happy. My dream is to make people believe in themselves the way i do, so that we can all have a fashion moment and continue the love for dressing ourselves, however we want, so that art never dies. I want to be like a painting.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use my prize money to prepare myself to attend college and learn everything i can about the art world. I want to be a painter and learn how to make clothing. My grandmother was once a tailer for the army in Colombia, and i was told she could create a pattern off the top her head. I want to be like her, her name was “the one with the look” translated from “ladelmira”. Most of the money would also go to an investment account so that i can continue to build my business and stay grounded.
