What makes your style stand out?

I refuse to let limited sizing define my self-expression. It's like a corset around my individuality. As someone who rarely fits most designers, I have learned to mix unexpected pieces, tailor creatively, and wear each look with confidence. My style has never been about fitting in ... it's about making fashion fit me.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

To become your Style Icon and donate my invitation to the Versace show to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Fashion is about joy and self-expression, and I would love for a child who dreams in color and couture to experience that magic firsthand. I would love to gift that entire evening ... the models, the front row, the backstage buzz. Turning my moment into theirs would be the most stylish statement I could ever make.

What would you do with $20,000?

I intend to donate the full $20,000 of my winnings to the Elton John AIDS Foundation. It is my hope that this contribution, however modest, helps shine the spotlight on those too often left in the shadows. And that the same spirit that animates great design and powerful style may help the Foundation continue its vital work until AIDS is no more.
