I am a Congolese fashion designer from Alaska USA. I am passionate about sharing my culture and my story with the world through fashion.
What makes your style stand out?
My style is a combination of unique cultural elements and a celebration of unity and humanity. In addition to the modern cultural beauty, each piece in my collection also tells a story.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My Free Congo collection was the opening showcase in a recent fashion extravaganza. The models walked the runway to “This is Me” with live drummers positioned around the theater and a video playing on the big screen of my previous collections and my company’s humanitarian work in refugee camps in DRC. It was glorious!
What would you do with $20,000?
I would invest the $20000 to grow my business and create new collections.
