what is your style in three words?

alternative, Y2K, artistic

what are quotes you live by?

“ you don’t have to be amazing to start

but you have to

start to be amazing”

“dress to express,

NOT to impress,"

how do you bring your creativity out in your clothes?

I bring out my creativity through my clothes

by using them to express

my artistic side.

As an artist, I see my clothes as wearable art,

especially when I

paint my jeans.

Through my outfits, I showcase who I am, my identity, and

what I'm feeling at the moment.

Speaking of painting your jeans? what fuels your designs?

when I'm painting my jeans are things that I like and that are

part of who I am.

For instance, I always paint my initials on my jeans, similar to how an artist signs their signature on a canvas.

I also draw inspiration from things I find cool,

such as anime,

and aesthetics

like grunge and Y2K

As someone who takes pride in expressing your personality through clothing, how do you use fashion as a means of self-representation?

I use fashion as a means of self-representation,

a way to express myself

rather than to impress others.

Having struggled with finding my identity and confidence,

fashion became an outlet

for me to be

unapologetically me.

I believe that fashion is art, and as an artist,

I let my outfits—

whether painted jeans or laid-back looks—

express who I am.
