AFW 25 / / Look 1
.
.
I was so proud to incorporate my African beads and my 🇿🇦 headscarf into this look. To me, fashion is my way to express myself and represent the under-seens, under-heards...
Connecting my love for fashion and Australian design with my deep cultural roots was my vision for this look.
-
Thank you to @jamtuna for capturing 📸
-
The goal for Look 1 was to combine modernity and cultural heritage all together; hence my choice of animal print, the colours and the headwear.

Every beautiful thing that entered my life arrived after a moment I almost let fear stop me.
Healing.
Modelling.
Opportunities.
Growth.
Confidence.
Meeting new people.
Being seen.
None of it came from staying hidden.
Sometimes bravery looks loud.
Sometimes it just looks like showing up anyway.
What is something you did scared, but ended up changing your life?
What's your last shopping screenshot?
Mine: shoes from @bettsshoes

(Fun Fact: 80% of my screenshots are shoes)

Thank you to our gorgeous @doriaaane for sharing her body EMBRACE story.
Some bodies are healing.
Some bodies are changing.
Some are carrying a new life.
Some are carrying grief.
There is no ‘right’ for our bodies to be, we can just embrace every version we go through. 🤍
FIGUR Campaign was not just another promotional shoot. It was a movement. It was all about womanhood. All about size inclusion, representation and body positivity ♥️
@doriaaane the UNSEEN Icon and @curvygirlj (aka Jay) the RECLAIMED Icon are both wearing : 🤎BARE bodysuit🤎 @figur_co

Try-On @marina.rinaldi
What a feeling being able to try on your size in-store at such a prestige luxury brand establishment ♥️

The fear and anxiety of filming yourself in public places, nothing can compare. I feel judged, I feel awkward. BUT : I always ensure no one is in my video unless they have given me verbal consent.
...After filming in public all alone, I don't think I'm afraid of anything anymore !
Also did you notice how I try to hide the lady/customer reflection so she is not in my video unknowingly ? ♥️

On a more serious note :
Are we liking this silk dress on me?
📍@offshoot.studio CBR | Branding Shoot for Revel
.
.
The mood board said -MONOCHROME-
Glasses were borrowed from @maureen.brown.au_model ❤️🫰
.

Do we think I nailed the brief with my chocolate brown head to toe look ? ( You can't see but my shoes were also chocolate brown @bettsshoes )
We love a full @kmartaus look 🫰
Pants, top, phone chain, headband, bag = all from KMART.

It's been a while since I've been this creative. Sometimes you need to go out and shoot and break all the rules! Here are some creative outtakes from today 🌸 Aiming to capture that dream like state
All in camera, no photoshop or editing apart from colour balance 🤍

Manifesting and Mindset switch is what saved me earlier this month ♥️
I can't believe I was part of another #fashionshow and this time I wasn't volunteering backstage. No ma'am! I was part of the #runway as one of the #plussizemodel for @reveltherunway where I had the honour to walk for 6 wonderful #designers
.
.
@degail_official being one of them. I walked for De Gail's new collection named HALO.
I am wearing 3 pieces :
- Muse Grid Scarf (at my waist)
- Jolie Tunic Top (size 18)
- Jolie Pant (size 18)
.
.
DeGail is wonderful #sizeinclusive brand that starts at size 14, where most brands stop.
If you're mid-size or curvy or Plus-Size queen, if you don't know them, go give them a follow and check out their gorgeous Collections.
