“I’m wearing a Collina Strada dress turned into a skirt, top from No Pise La Grama, purse Bulgari, shoes Amina Muaddi. My style is inspired by 70s goddesses like Diana and Aretha and more.”

“I am wearing a Marine Serre open back dress layered with a plaid nylon skirt I thrifted for $4! Nike x Comme de Garçons sneaker heels that are my children and a Heavn by Marc Jacobs purse. There is an art to layering that I try to master with each outfit I create and it really inspires me to step outside my comfort zone.”

“I’m wearing my gákti. It’s a traditional sámi clothing. As you might see I have some broches. The oldest one of these is from the 19th century. I’m also wearing my trusty Doc Martens. Wearing my gákti makes me feel strong and confident. My outfit is inspired by the traditional sámi regalia, but I have given it my own spin.“

“My top is Issey Miyake Fete, dress is Somewhere Nowhere, shoes are from Esqape, bag is from Depop, and rings from Yours by Claire Webb and La Manso, earrings handmade by me, watch is by Evora. What originally inspires my style is my family, especially the matriarchs like my mom, my aunt and my godmothers. Being around all different types of color, texture and patterns gave me the confidence to wear whatever I want, wherever I want. I feel that no one brand or store can encapsulate my style. My closet is built from individual pieces I’ve collected throughout my life, from places I’ve traveled and people I’ve known. I love how each garment carries its own story and each full outfit can show a small piece of who I am or who I want to be.”

“I am wearing Flatlist sunnies, Brandon Blackwood bag, a vintage Dior button down styled as a halter, Fried Rice bottoms, Maison Soksi tights, and thrifted mules. Lately my style has been inspired by the increased blurred lines of formal and casual wear. Mixing these to create more interesting looks and like many of us, by finding new and non traditional ways of wearing our current pieces to minimize overconsumption.”

“I’m a designer and I’m wearing a completely green outfit inspired by my motherland Ireland. I made the top out of scrap fabric from the floor of my studio (instead of throwing it away). The shorts and blazer are thrifted. I am inspired by historical fashions but finding ways to make them new.”
