Style is POWER—an outlet for self-expression where my eye for fashion brings confidence and creativity to life.
We would like to thank you for supporting Antayvia Sanders 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?
My style stands out because it’s intentional—bold enough to turn heads, and timeless enough to last. Every look tells a story that’s uniquely mine. My style is an extension of my personality. I love experimenting with silhouettes, textures, and colors to create looks that speak before I do. Each outfit tells a story—sometimes bold, sometimes understated, but always authentic. My style reflects who I am: confident, versatile, and unafraid to take risks.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be debuting my own collection on a global runway, where Antayvia Couture comes alive in front of the world. I imagine a major celebrity stepping onto the red carpet in one of my designs, making headlines and inspiring conversations. Ultimately, my dream is to create Avant Garde pieces that not only turn heads in the moment but also leave a legacy—defining an era and cementing my brand as a symbol of luxury and influence.
What would you do with $20,000?
With $20,000, I would finally bring Antayvia Couture to life—a dream I’ve carried since middle school. I’ve been building my collection since 2021, and this seed money would help turn years of vision into reality. I’ve kept multimillion-dollar ideas in my drafts under my umbrella, “EMPIRE”—a future conglomerate meant to branch into couture, red carpet wear, cosmetics, jewelry, leather goods, and more. This isn’t just a brand; it’s a lifelong dream in motion.
