Fashion is my source of confidence and self-expression. It’s art, identity, and inclusivity breaking barriers and inspiring change.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because it’s a reflection of my journey as a trans woman and as an individual. I blend masculine and feminine influences in ways that feel authentic to me, often drawing inspiration from my mom while staying true to my own voice. My style is unique because it expresses not just my gender, but who I am as a whole person and no one else can wear my experience.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be wearing a piece by Miss. Sohee. Her designs are sculptural, artistic, and truly breathtaking. I admire the way her work turns clothing into art, and it would be a dream to wear one of her creations whether for my wedding or any special occasion. For me, it would be more than just fashion, it would be stepping into a piece of living art.
What would you do with $20,000?
With $20,000, I would pay off my student loans and help my mom, who cares for my grandma after her stroke, by easing some of her burden. I’d also support my dad, save and invest for the future, and put money toward paramedic school. To me, the prize isn’t just about fashion it would give me the chance to support my family and invest in my dreams.
