I am not my skin; Therefore my style is the only way to express myself, let the clothes speak for me.
We would like to thank you for supporting Jaden Porreco 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?
Being surrounded by strong women allowed for me to nurture a very accepting type of style that could technically be classified as eclectic. Mix patterns/era's & have fun. When people ask me what type of style I enjoy the most it would be 70s or hippie style, peace and love man <3. I was raised in an area where I never fit in because of my style. As a man, having three sisters leaked into my style/personality perhaps a little more than intended by my parents lol. Femininity :) >Toxic masculinity
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My long term fashion dream would be dressing movie or tv characters for film or television productions. Seriously guys hand me the script, I've got this. My dream fashion moment would be to walk, design my own show, or be in a fashion magazine. My entire life people have said to me that I am "to short" to walk. Even though I might be a little vertically challenged that does not mean I won't walk in a show one day :).
What would you do with $20,000?
I would use the money to make my fashion dreams come true. I have the talent, drive, determination, and creativity to make it in the fashion world. If just one of my outfits or photos came across the right person, I am confident I could do what I've always dreamed wanted and expected of myself to do. Northern Colorado Springs has never been known for fashion. I want to show the world it does not matter how you look or what you wear but how you treat people underneath the clothing that matters.
