What does the word “fashion” mean to you?
Dress what you like and feel yourself look fab!!!!
How much attention do you pay to fashion in terms of trends in the way you dress?
I always read fashion magazines to get the information and decide which of them will fit me.
When you read a newspaper, do you read the fashion pages? If so, what sort of information do they usually provide?
Yes! The trendy/hot items in this season. Showing different dress style. The tips for looking great!
Does fashion allow people to express their individuality or does it force people to conform?
Different styles give different feelings to others and style can change whenever you want.
Does the media (or the fashion industry) play some role in creating or continuing stereotypes?
Maybe they are always showing the perfect bodies(Victoria Secret show etc.) to the public.
What duty, if any, does the media (or fashion industry) have to change these stereotypes?
Yes, they are gorgeous but how many of us have those such perfect bodies? It’s time to tell people that looking healthy is pretty enough. Hope I can see not only skinny model in magazines later but more healthy bodies!
How does Macau inspire the way you dress?
Macau means “leisure” to me, so I like wearing casual clothes in Macau, wide-leg cotton/chiffon trousers are good choices.
What do you think of Macau’s fashion scene? How can it be improved?
Can be open I think. If most people don’t feel shocked when they see women go out with no bra, it is already a great improvement.
How often have you actually seen someone actually wearing some of the more extreme fashion show creations? Does anybody wear them?
Moschino, D&G- I can recognize at once if someone wore them but maybe the couture stuff not so much.
Do you think that being a fashion model would be an enjoyable interesting life? Would you like to be one?
Yes, because they can always change the style to show different looks. Being one would be fun but it won’t be easy. Keep improving is a must.
What is in fashion for women/men this year?
Women, choker for neck and ankle(point). Men, leisure look—oversize tee, adding one/two military item(s) in look. And for both, long string of cap and sleeves, long belts.
How has fashion brought a change in your life?
To be here, to be interviewed. The truth is if you think you look great then you’ll become more confident. It’s so important!
Which social media platform are you most active on?
Instagram. I’m considering opening a youtube channel to share my makeup skill and good stuff.
Which celebrities have the best style to you?
BAGALRIRI!!!!! Rihanna. Love her from toe to head, love her naughty, sexy street outlook!
