Style is fluid. It has the ability to tell time, be self-expressive, unite even the most unlikely of people, and cause conversation.
What makes your style stand out?
I like to layer interesting textures, silhouettes, and colors, but what makes me unique is my versatility. My outfits both project and influence my inner world, which is ever fluid. Even on a bad day, look good, feel even greater. And as Rhianna said, “She might be able to beat me, but she’ll never beat my outfit.”Everyone is unique, but there’s only one of me, one of my mind and soul.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I'd love to be walking in runways overseas and doing brand commercials, and bringing friends with me, or be featured alongside a top model/actress. That, and I want to accidentally wear the same outfit as someone famous at a fashion event. I think that would be pretty funny and a way l'd know l'd have made it!
What would you do with $20,000?
I’d invest in a building where I could further provide for my local creative community through @dondada_collective, in order to continue to host free group shoots, fashion shows, creative and educational workshops, and educational seminars. I want to invest back into the creative community, and highlight new creatives, connecting them to new opportunities!
