What makes your style stand out?

My style stands out because it lives in the golden mean: neither shout nor whisper, but the right voice at the right moment. I borrow the past’s craftsmanship and temper it with present purpose — clothes that honor function as much as beauty. Like a well-ruled city, every piece is measured, honest, and kind to the wearer; it speaks of discipline, memory, and a deliberate refusal of excess. In short: I dress like I’ve read history, paid my dues, and still plan to crash the future runway — quietly

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment is simple and sovereign: I step into a room where time pauses — elders nod, strangers learn, and my clothes tell a story louder than any speech. It’s not a red carpet of flash, but a doorway where tradition and invention shake hands and agree to stay friends. I want my silhouette to be the answer to a question nobody knew they were asking — a single image that feels like both a lesson and a promise.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would plant a small, smart ecosystem that grows beyond one season. $8,000 to produce a capsule collection with ethical materials and local tailors; $4,000 to develop strong branding and a crisp lookbook that actually sells the idea; $3,000 for a pop-up show and photos that put the garments in context; $3,000 to build a tiny online shop and targeted outreach; $2,000 to seed a scholarship for an apprentice tailor — because style without passing on skill is just noise.
