What makes your style stand out?

My love for fashion started early. I've been collecting vintage clothing from my granny's & Mum’s wardrobe since I was 14. What makes my style truly unique is its foundation in recycling and upcycling. I'm passionate about breathing new life into these past pieces, using them to help others craft their own personal style and feel genuinely confident in what they wear.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

A dream fashion moment would be appearing on the cover and in a multi-page editorial spread of a major global magazine—but with a unique twist. This wouldn't be about modeling clothes; it would be about curation and cultural influence. The feature would spotlight my perspective as a style architect, with me wearing carefully selected vintage and recycled pieces that I have personally sourced and styled. The true moment of power would be having top designers from around the world involved

What would you do with $20,000?

I would work on promoting my mission, and monetize my passion—all while staying true to the vintage, confidence-boosting heart of my style. I would love to continue making connections and seeing how far I can go with my ideas
