I don’t have one style, Love old MGM, grey gardens, and Hell’s Kitchen camp! I’ll only feel confident in what I’m wearing if I’m having fun
What makes your style stand out?
My style is a reflection of how I’m feeling, I have BPD and find expressing my emotions through my clothes makes the outfit and my aura feel like one. A ton of strong emotions I could be feeling throughout the day can be acknowledged without having been indulged. When it comes to accessories or clothing the every part of what you are feeling can be literally or figuratively expressed. I find I can move through my day in one cosmic breath of honesty!
What’s your dream fashion moment?
All the clothes in the movie Bringing Up Baby! On any occasion…Oh to walk 14th street in a pencil skirt tailored to the gods!! When I was younger my dad took me to see an Alexander McQueen showcase at the Brooklyn Museum and the dark room and lit up majesty will never leave my mind. Feathers! Studs! Sci-fi heels; expressive, slim and 4000% classes above mine! And never forget the GRAND HIPS!!
What would you do with $20,000?
I would use $20,000 to help me fund my way through London, Milan and Paris. I would tour those parts of Europe visiting agencies and working with photographers building and marketing myself as a model. Growing up watching project runway I used to believe I wanted to be the designers making their visions come to life. But turns out I wanted to be the moving part of the art; presenting and personifying who the clothing is! $20,000 will help me with my goal of really establishing myself as a model.
