How would you describe your style aesthetic?

My style is classic, trendy, clean lines, simple and stylistic, sexy with a touch of class.

What inspired you to be a designer?

My inspiration started at age 9 when I was young, my parents couldn’t afford to buy new clothes for us all the time. So I started sewing, making a pleated skirt by hand because my mom said I was too young to use the sewing machine. I had dolls but I thought I needed the clothes more than a doll.

Who is your fashion icon and why?

My fashion icon is Valentino, he makes and designs beautiful fabulous gowns and would love to be like him one day.

What celebrity—living or dead—or fictional character would you like to dress and what would you make for them?

I would love to dress Beyoncé, she wears a lot of sexy gowns and she looks fabulous in them. I would make a gown to show off her curves, keeping it sexy but with a little more covered up than she usually wear.
