fashion is an art form and philosophy. Subject to how I feel from my self-image. A mix of avant garde, distressed, and elevated streetwear.
We would like to thank you for supporting Carlos Varela 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?
I Dress how I want, depending on how I feel, anywhere. Always luxury, as clothing are pieces of art for me(even if the clothing is distressed!). I never dress for anything that’s not me. I dress as the reflection I, myself, am. I don’t let any influence make me rethink my fashion, only my own curiosity and desire 🖤🪽
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I will have a fashion label on par with Gucci or Balenciaga one day. It’s part of my vision. Fashion has always been an essential part of who I am. It is one of my 5 passions.
What would you do with $20,000?
I am planning on attending a university to get a bachelors degree in fashion design. This would help much towards that goal. I would also use the money to market myself -my self-image-, find more connections, and hopefully find a mentor.
