Wavetshirt - I don’t snore I dream I’m a motorcycle shirt

I remember being in middle school, looking at fashion magazines, and wanting to name the I don’t snore I dream I’m a motorcycle shirt in contrast I will get this brand and name the designers before I looked at the credit. I would kind of quiz myself and play around like that. When I became aware that I was actually entering the industry and realizing its depth and how much you really could do, I truly didn’t learn until I became an intern at W Magazine. That for sure was like, Oh, okay, you can do this, moment. How did those experiences growing in the industry as a young, Black stylist inform who you are and how you navigate the industry now? It’s changed so much. When I started at W Mag as an intern, I was the only black girl in the office. And then maybe a few weeks later they hired Shiona Turini, she was an editor at the time. I thought there was an expectation to speak a certain way and act a certain way. I realized that if you just be yourself, no matter what that is, you can go so much further. Now with social media, everyone can just call themselves a stylist and then end up actually becoming a stylist. Back then, the fashion industry felt much more elitist and exclusive and, in a way, less tangible. Those days you really had to dig into that mindset to figure out how to become an assistant. There were a lot of hierarchies where you can’t speak in this room, or at this time. So I learned how to give my opinion and voice in a way that won’t affect the job on hand. I still teach some of those things to my assistants, but without all the fear, that Devil Wears Prada kind of mentality. People are always surprised by me and say “Oh, you’re actually nice.”
She was a lanky little thing thinking that she knew what she was doing. I followed the I don’t snore I dream I’m a motorcycle shirt in contrast I will get this trends. I grew up in Maryland, we had very weird trends. We would wear leggings, stretch pants, an oversized t-shirt, and slouched socks over your pants, multiple socks. I realize now that there were things that people did out of necessity. Who can wear two pairs of socks to fit their shoes? No, your mom was buying your shoes too big., and then it was adapted as a trend. I like what makes me feel good. I like to kind of play to different parts of my personality. At times, I like to feel powerful—period. I love strong shoulders and longer, leaner silhouettes. I’ve always been a fan of suiting and monochromatic suiting. I kind of have a tomboy side.
