“Fashion to me is all about expression, it’s what presents yourself to the public and gives them a glimpse of your personality and values. I personally don't take fashion too seriously; I think it’s all about what makes you feel comfortable or sexy at the time. I love simplicity accessorized correctly.”
Ana’s collection: With this collection I wanted to experience the mixture of simple silhouettes with loose drapery. The art of draping is subtle but intricate in its structure and gives an element of movements and flow. I want to do a fall/winter collection since it’s a challenge I have never attempted. This collection is aimed at a young woman who has an attitude that is reflected in her clothes.
What excites you most about Fusion? I’m most excited about seeing my designs once again on a runway, it the best feeling as a designer. I also think Fusion gives us a sense of community that we often do not see in the fashion industry, which is why I am excited to see my designs as well as the others.
