A: My interest in fashion started when I was in first year university. I started watching American's Next Top Model religiously, which introduced me to the fashion world. Prior to university, I went to a catholic school with a uniform, so I never really cared how I looked. In university, I started buying Vogue and Nylon magazines, followed designers and stylish musicians on instagram, browsing online stores and shopping at local vintage boutiques. My inspiration comes from music, I like to imagine and draw outfits based on the style of a song. I am also heavily inspired by artists; I find that those who have a creative medium like music and art tend to have the most interesting senses of style.
