The thing I love most is the ability to explore myself, and seeing a look I design on my body makes it worth it.
We would like to thank you for supporting Charlie Thompson 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?
What sets my style apart is how far I’m willing to push boundaries. I can transform anything into an outfit, and I wear clothing in bold ways that others might hesitate to try.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My fashion dream is to have my own show where I can showcase what I’m capable of creating with clothes and makeup, and eventually launch my own makeup and clothing lines.
What would you do with $20,000?
I’m currently a freshman in college working toward a bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts for drawing, with the goal of pursuing fashion design later in my life. If I receive this money, I would use it to pay my remaining tuition and then begin building my supplies—such as fabric, a sewing machine, thread, and new materials for design.
