I aspire to personify the classic gentleman with personality; unique vintage styles that pay attention to the practical and pomp.
What makes your style stand out?
My aesthetic portrays an old soul - things from my grandfather's generation add the flare that I go for; classic silhouettes and sharp tailoring bring tradition, while also pushing the boundaries of "vintage" and redefining "classic" with unique details that only I can display. Achieving first impressions and respect that is gained from being well dressed, while also being approachable and a face that can be recognized from across the room.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
A mention from a friend, compliment from a stranger, or glance my way; these ordinary moments make up my dream fashion moment. I live to enjoy the feel of a fine fabric and see quality construction; for those every-day interactions where I share the passion of fashion. True fashion is inspiring others, making something beautiful that can be appreciated and that can lead others to create. I want others to push me, to make me greater than I could be on my own.
What would you do with $20,000?
As a college student, I would use the $20,000 to provide additional outlets for my educational opportunities, eliminating barriers to a potential post-graduate experience. This money also provides the flexibility to expand my passion for creating and sharing fashion. I hope to save a large portion of this money to help me get started as a creator and with this money, I also plan to give 10% to fund children's education in Cameroon Africa!
