My style evolves with me. It changes my energy, lifts my mood, and helps me grow into who I’m becoming.
We would like to thank you for supporting Maya Aflakpi 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?
My style stands out because I see my hair as part of my outfit—I love styling my Afro in different ways. My looks are diverse and match what I’m doing that day: courtside at an NBA game, on set for a Target shoot, or just out and about, my style reflects my mood and my work.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is walking the Victoria’s Secret runway as the supermodel I am making a name for myself while inspiring girls who look like me to dream big and own their style.
What would you do with $20,000?
I’d use it to level up my career and support my loved ones. Pay off student debt, travel to meet agencies and clients around the world, and create opportunities that help me grow as a model and storyteller, while giving my family the support they deserve.
