I want to take on the nature of
today’s politics on a grassroots level,
to write a new narrative. I want the
conversation to include mundane
lives and prosperous lives—not just
sensationalized lives. My work always
revolves around justice and equality.
I know how important it is to tell
these stories about our community.

My motivation to create
fashion comes from a
very specific cultural
perspective. I’m
interested in images and
messages that are
grounded in cultural
context—but at the same
time, they need to be
carried out in a beautiful
way. They need to be
seductive! It’s fashion—
it’s what I do—but people
can access it in lots of
different ways.

Sustainability and
stopping the waste that
we see around us is
a must! Fashion does
not live in a vacuum—
it reflects what is
happening in the world.
It had to evolve into
something else.
Fashion can become a
weapon to express
oneself, to feel bold and
brave. It’s like people
are telling the world:
Look at me, I have
something to say.
