My style is vintage: a living collage of moments, moods, and memories stitched into who I am.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because the clothes may catch the eye, but it’s the confidence that holds the gaze. I don’t just wear fashion, I embody it. Every look I put on is powered by self-assurance that can’t be stitched or styled. Confidence is my signature piece, the one thing that never goes out of season.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment? It’s seeing my own clothing line come to life, watching people who share my love for style and creativity wear it unapologetically. I want them to feel powerful, seen, and inspired in what they wear. Fashion, to me, is freedom! My dream is to design pieces that remind people that being themselves is the boldest art form there is. No matter what people say being free is Top priority, especially in having your own style.
What would you do with $20,000?
I’d invest that $20K into building a business that empowers creatives like myself while also helping me finish school. Education is a priority, but so is creating space for others to express freely. As an artist, I know how hard it can be to turn passion into opportunity, so I’d use that money to build outlets that support creative freedom and purpose. Something with real, lasting value.
