What makes your style stand out?

Almost everything I wear is second hand, I have a certain luck when it comes to thrifting including a men’s Versace couture blazer for $8. I focus a lot on sustainability, and as a college student, I need to get creative when it comes to feeling my best. Luckily, the thrifts of College Station have never failed me!

What’s your dream fashion moment?

To meet Daniel Rosenberry or Johnathan Anderson, both are really big inspirations behind what I want as a career. Their attention to detail and manner of taking inspiration from the past, influence my interest in vintage fashion and adding small details to make it your own! Learning from them and hearing what makes their brains tick would be an ultimate fashion moment!

What would you do with $20,000?

I would move to Europe! Spain, specifically, but I want to pursue fashion, whether that’s in styling or creative direction, I would use it to relocate and continue my education in fashion marketing and see what’s in store. I currently am a part of an org at my school that publishes its own magazine, and I’ve experienced a sliver of what it means to be a stylist in the fashion world; I love it! I would use it to expand my knowledge of fashion and pursue my career.
