Q: What are your favorite fashion blogs? Magazines?
A: We Wore What, Not Jess Fashion
Q: What do you love about fashion? Not love?
A: The design and creativity of it. Not loving that it's capitalism's favorite child. The exploitation of workers in third world countries is terrible. Companies like Forever 21, H&M, Zara need to stop. Fast fashion is terrible for the environment and for the workers elsewhere. Western culture needs to stop exploiting the east without giving credit. I hope to change this.
Q: Your favorite designers & brands?
A: Alexander McQueen.
Q: Do you follow fashion trends? Which ones?
A: I am aware of them, if I follow them? Ah. I don't know. If I actually really like something I'll seek it out. I would never just get something because it's "in"

A: Probably not invented yet. To empower women through fashion in third world countries. The next rising economy is just that, women entrepreneurs in Eastern culture. I can't wait.
Q: What are your other interests? How do you spend your spare time?
A: Museum, traveling, reading, writing. I currently work for an incredible company, PROJECT JUST, that shares the same morals as I do in terms of fashion and works to making a meaningful difference. I love New York, I love exploring it, I've made awesome friends here so I like to spend time with them doing just that. In graduate school I have to read a lot so I don't have too much free time.
