What makes your style stand out?

My style stands out because it merges innovation with authenticity. I love pushing boundaries with bold details, unique cuts, and cultural influences while keeping a refined elegance. Every look tells a story and invites people to see fashion as more than clothing—it’s identity, expression, and art.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment is showcasing a collection on a global runway where each piece reflects my vision and resonates with people worldwide. I imagine that moment as proof that creativity, passion, and persistence can create a legacy that inspires the next generation of designers.

What would you do with $20,000?

would invest in developing my next collection, sourcing high-quality sustainable fabrics, and expanding production. The funds would also help with marketing and building visibility so my designs can reach a wider audience. This investment would turn ideas into opportunities and accelerate my journey in fashion.
