fashion Q & A

so here is a Q & A all about fashion...yaaay!

Q: Who is your favorite designer?
A: I have several:  Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Mar Jacobs, Coco Chanel and Dolce & Gabbana.

Q: Which designers do you wear the most?
A: Going to be honest, I have more Louis Vuitton  but I actually prefer to wear local or indie designers. One of them is Make Believe Monsters their t shirts are fabulous!!!

Q: What was it like having a Mom for a runway model?
A: It was pretty cool. I grew up around fashion and music so it's all I pretty much have been exposed to. My Mum taught me how to work the runway so I remember putting on her heels and walking up and down the hallway practicing.

Q: Favorite fashion magazine?
A: I love Vogue or Elle I read those two the most.

Q: Your fashion influences?
A: Everyday people! I love setting trends more so than following them. My clothing style is pretty quirky so I love anything that is out there or something that no one has seen or done before.

Q: Most interesting fashion moment?
A: When I attended an event and a girl had on the EXACT outfit I did. It was pretty funny but those things happen from time to time. Just learn to laugh at them.

Q: Favorite shoes?
A: I am more of a chuck type of girl!! I do and will wear heels but typically I love to just loaf around in sneaks like converse or chucks.But it's weird I say that about heels but love wearing pointe shoes.

Q: Fashion icons?
A: Coco Chanel and Audrey Hepburn. I am so fascinated with 1950s and 1960s fashion for both men and women. I think women were more glamourous then. I typically go for a classic look and natural I don't like to see women cake on make up etc it doesn't seem "real" to me.      

Q: Your first runway show?
A: I was so incredibly nervous! My fear is always forgetting where the runway ends and walking into the crowd ha ha.

Q: You prefer gothic high fashion and pin up to editorial, why?
A: One reason is because I didn't want the constant comparisons. Not that I didn't mind but I wanted to find my own niche in the fashion industry aside from my Mum. But I've always been attracted to the edgier side of fashion as well not what everyone else likes so to speak. It was more about creating my own identity.

Q: It was or still is hard in the fashion industry marketing wise?
A: Yes, very much so. When I very first started everyone wanted to try and "market" me as something I am not which was so hard. I just felt like (and still do) that it is easier to categorize people so when it came to me it was a whole wtf ?? notion. Finally, it just came down to why not just "market" me as is..a human being? It is what it is but yes there are moments.

Q: Where do you see yourself in the fashion industry?
A: It is really hard to tell. I love modeling now and the traveling, etc. but really I see myself "retired" and being a mum which is what I hope for someday. Maybe then I will take up designing but who knows!!
