Fashion makes Drew Kalsto feel free to burden bigots with electric, gay energy. And there are no spare keys to the fantasy. I want fantasy.
What makes your style stand out?
I push past what is expected of us as people. I wear heels, I take notes from feminine and masculine elements. I play with every piece of sand in the box. I want to enter the world of fashion to use this fire I feel inside to break past expectations on a stage. I want to not only do it for my own fantasy and heart, but I want to be someone who makes this world feel more open for others to also express exactly who they are inside. Fashion is a direct reflection of how deeply I feel in this life.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
To attend fashion week and see couture with my own two eyes. To see the shows that have given me strength and courage for so many years in real time. To maybe one day wear said couture as well.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would use it to invest in my career moving forward within fashion, moving out of my small rural town for somewhere like New York or Paris. I just want to live out my most beautiful fantasy!
