The power to brand myself—orange hair, bold flair, and endless ways to tell my story.

What makes your style stand out?
What makes my style stand out? Honestly, you see the hair before anything else. It’s bright, it’s bold, and it sets the tone. After that, the outfit tells the rest of the story—fun, fearless, and true to me. I love walking into a room and letting my style introduce me before I even say a word.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is stepping onto a runway at Paris/Milan Fashion Week, the lights on me, every step telling a story. I’d be wearing a look that’s unmistakably me, turning heads not just for the clothes, but for the energy and confidence I bring. A moment where fashion feels like pure magic and at the end of the night I get to meet some of my favourite fashion icons…(P.s Rihanna- fingers crossed).
What would you do with $20,000?
I’d use it to grow my clothing and events brand, investing in pieces, events, and experiences that help me tell my story through style. I’d also do something meaningful for my mum—like securing her own apartment with a year’s rent paid—and finally, I’d clear my debt so I can start the next chapter with freedom and focus.
