Style is a magical feeling that comes from within. Almost any style, including an outfit or makeup look, can be cool if worn with intention.
We would like to thank you for supporting Milena Santiago 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 is a curated mix of current trends and timeless staples. I like to mix traditionally feminine and traditionally masculine elements. I am heavily inspired by music, through mood and iconic pop star looks.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I work behind the scenes in fashion, as a producer, stylist, and makeup artist for menswear shoots. My dream is to have my own moment in the limelight, either on the runway or in front of the camera for an editorial shoot. Working behind the scenes in fashion has given me a unique perspective on what it takes to be a style icon.
What would you do with $20,000?
$20,000 would allow me to go back to school and work towards earning my MBA in Global Fashion. I crave fashion knowledge and believe that learning business acumen from industry professionals would help to maximize my potential. With a Master of Business Administration, I would be more prepared to start my own fashion business, whether it be a clothing line or a photoshoot production company. I want to share my creative vision with the world one day.
