“Hat was found at some random flea market in Japan, jacket is Ernte x Kmrii studded leather jacket, shirt LGB, pants Limi Feu, boots and black bag 14th Addiction, and grey bag Kmrii. One of the necklaces is Gunda x Gara, one is thrifted and the other two are Hard Jewelry. My style is pulled from a whole bunch of stuff but mainly inspired by punk culture in America and Japan, avantgarde fashion, the v-kei movement, Bloodborne, I’ll throw in some cowboy pieces here and there sometimes, and the idea that clothing is made to be worn so wear it. Every stain/rip/distressing/hole/general-wear-and-tear/whatever on your clothing tells a story. The clothes are still good, don’t just toss it. Either accept that it’s seen better days or pick up a needle and thread and patch that shit up. Oh and have fun with it! It really is not that serious.“

“I’m wearing layered tulle skirts from Other People’s Clothes, an off the shoulder loose tee, and some vintage jewelry and shoes that were a gift from my mom. I try to maintain a wardrobe that is mostly secondhand, it’s like a treasure hunt and it makes the items you get ahold of so much more special. I think it also pushes you to curate a style that feels unique to you. I love layering, and I love loose and flowy attire – I’m very inspired by fantasy and I try to put together outfits that have a whimsical feel to them. It makes me feel like I’m bringing a bit of magic into my day!”

“I’m a firm believer that more is more. Add another layer, pin on a brooch, stack another necklace – or, in my case, finish it with a kilt belt. Great style is about balancing function with intention. Every piece should serve a purpose while contributing to a thoughtfully curated look. Fashion should feel effortless, but it should never feel accidental. Now I’m wearing a vintage tank by Gianni Versace, Jose Duran jacket, Laruicci shorts, vintage cowboy boots. Robert Lee Morris vintage belt, up cycled kilt belt by Filip Ross Moda, Loewe glasses, and vintage jewelry.”
