Fashion is my way of showing my individuality, without it I would be lost. I love to blend y2k, gothic and 90s aesthetics to fit my tastes.
We would like to thank you for supporting Ellie in this years competition. Your participation allows us to empower the Elton John AIDS Foundation in their mission to end AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
What makes your style stand out?
I find what gets me the most compliments is my use of more vintage aesthetics paired with more of an edgy/gothic feel to it. I find that way every person I connect with can find some nostalgia from it and connect with it on some deeper level.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Modelling some sort of Vivienne Westwood look would be absolutely amazing. Her looks on the runway are so ethereal and light but also a touch of dark to them, making it really stand out for me. Her colour palette for fashion and makeup as well stands out to me so much as we don’t see as many looks like that these days.
What would you do with $20,000?
Firstly I would pay off my forever daunting student loan and secondly I would use it for the groundwork of starting my career. Getting professional headshots and being able to afford transportation to Vancouver where most of the agencies are located. Overall winning it would put my burdens at ease and help skyrocket me into my dream profession, something I had given up hope on for a time. Even entering this competition and getting accepted has given me hope, so thanks a bunch!!
