Style is one of the biggest forms of self expression and I'm passionate about being unapologetically myself.

What makes your style stand out?

My style stands out because it's a mix of so many different looks and aesthetics. As a plus size person, it can be hard to find something flattering and stylish so I try to find pieces that are comfortable while still aligned with my self expression. I love to combine a dark goth outfit with more whimsical makeup and accessories, or mix menswear with something a bit more feminine underneath. I want to be known as someone who takes risks and is constantly evolving and mixing different looks.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

I don't have one particular dream fashion moment, but I've always wanted to be a plus size model and bring more size inclusive fashion to the masses. Even though times have evolved, fashion and style are still aimed at smaller sizes and it is my dream to change that. I want to help shift the narrative that plus size clothing is boring or overpriced. Everyone deserves to express themselves how they want without size being a limitation.

What would you do with $20,000?

First, I would pay a deposit on a new apartment and move somewhere I can have studio space for creative projects. I would also invest in high quality fabric and costume pieces, my ultimate goal is to put more money back into my art. If there was anything left over I would give back to the community and help art become more accessible to low income and marginalized groups.
