Love fashion because of the way it empowers people. The right outfit can completely transform someone’s confidence and presence.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because I treat fashion like art. I combine unexpected textures and silhouettes so every look feels like a statement piece while still being wearable.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be able to attend a fashion show for fashion week in person.
What would you do with $20,000?
If I won $20,000, I’d use it to take my styling work to the next level while keeping everything true to my personal vibe. My go-to colors—deep blue, warm brown, classic black, camel, and rich green—always sneak into my looks because they feel grounded but still luxe. I’ve always been inspired by the sharp tailoring of Yves Saint Laurent and the playful details of Gucci. Those two worlds—polished and a little unexpected—pretty much describe how I approach styling.
