“I’m wearing Ecko track jacket I bought last year, my mom’s Gaultier mesh top from the 90s, and my brother’s pants. The shoes are Jeremy Scott Adidas which mean the world to me, I can’t take them off. I have lots of bracelets and hair accessories that I wear every day. Those are from my childhood or things that people gift me. I love accessories and excess and being too much. I’m super inspired by funk and soul music and party culture. I wear mostly my parents clothes because they were super cool and have amazing pieces and lived amazing lives. I like to give them a new life and carry everybody with me through what I wear.“
