What Does Fashion Means to you?
Fashion to me is my identity. It’s how I want the world to look at me, it’s a way to empower yourself and influence others. To me, fashion is a metaphor for life. I feel the most alive and connected with the world when I’m wearing something that makes me feel more…creative, more fascinating, strong, or complicated. The easiest way for me to feel like everything is brand new and that anything is possible is to change my clothes. Hence, the goal of fashion is to awaken your sense of presence and aliveness. I detest it when people wax overly philosophical about clothing, but this is actually the case!
