Aspiring fashion designer from Florida with dreams of starting my own affordable streetwear brand. Style is art. Let’s have fun.
What makes your style stand out?
I like mixing colors, textures and patterns to create looks that no one has ever seen. My style is very versatile, I love playing with masculine and feminine silhouettes, mixing hard and soft fabrics. My love of sewing and lack of money helps me take thrifted items and make them my own. I enjoy taking garments apart and completing transforming them into something new. In this world of Fast fashion, everyone looks alike, Im always confident knowing that no one at the party will be dressed like me
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I would be to style a couture fashion shoot for my whole family. Picture it.. Everyone would happily do everything I say, and would love it. No one in my family loves fashion the way I do. I would love for them to see me in my element, and the passion I have for fashion. Hopefully gain their own respect for me & fashion and the power a garment can have. I have big dreams, and one of them is to make them proud.
What would you do with $20,000?
Id definitely invest in a Serger, so that my creations can look more professional. I would also apply to fashion school, and learn the business side of fashion. I’ve created some really great pieces with no formal training, my creativity would be endless if I had the skills I desired. Sewing and creating just feels like my purpose in life, it comes so natural, I’m so excited to learn more.
