Check out the full interview:
1. What are your main sources of inspiration when creating your looks?
I've never thought about a fixed inspiration from a specific person or anything like that, I've always used my own foundation of various different styles with colors and models that please me and stand out.
2. How do you balance fashion trends with your own personal style?
I think the balance of fashion trends always consists of how we observe them because it's not so simple to wear two trends with different objectives, but when you seek a 'neutralization' of two or more trends, everything comes together.
3. What are your favorite clothing pieces at the moment and why?
Right now, I'm in love with oversized blazers. They have a sophisticated and versatile touch that goes well with various pieces. Additionally, knee-high boots have been my must-have for creating elegant and modern looks.
4. How do you adapt your wardrobe for different occasions, such as formal events and casual outings?
Adapting my wardrobe for different occasions is like a creative adventure. For formal events, I choose stunning dresses and elegant accessories. For casual outings, I go for well-fitted jeans and loose blouses, always keeping a fashionable touch.
5. What tips do you have for someone looking to build a versatile and timeless wardrobe?
My top tip is to invest in high-quality key pieces, such as a classic trench coat and a versatile black dress. Accessories are crucial too - a good pair of shoes and a bag can transform any basic outfit.
6. How does fashion influence your confidence and self-expression?
Fashion is my way of expressing myself without saying a word. When I wear something I love, my confidence shines. Self-expression is at the heart of fashion, and it's amazing to see how it impacts my self-esteem.
7. What are your predictions for upcoming trends in the fashion industry?
I foresee that the fashion industry will continue to embrace sustainability, with a greater focus on eco-friendly materials and ethical production processes. Additionally, I believe we'll see a unique blend of retro styles with futuristic touches, creating a truly innovative look.
