I’m drawn to bold, textural, and expressive. I love to layer handmade and thrifted pieces and create a consistent vibrant color palette.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because alot of it comes from expressing my own inner world. I make and alter alot of my own clothes to fit my own tastes and colors I'm personally drawn to. I often find inspiration from strange plants and sea creatures or just abstract concepts.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be to make a piece of clothing for an artist I admire to wear and perform in. I love the idea of making something for someone whose made music that gets me through a rough patch. There's a long list of artists I would love to see in my work but Ravyn Lenae and Doechii are two that I currently appreciate alot.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would use the money mainly to invest in my creative career as an artist and pursuing my passions as an artist. I am an illustrator and fibers artist, so the money would help with outreach and keeping up with all the costs of essentially marketing myself. I've always wanted to make an impact with my work and the money would give me the resources to do so.
