This past fall, I was really into mixing animal prints. Here I am wearing a turtleneck, skirt, and earrings combo all from Proenza Shouler. Originally introduced to the label in 2014, they've become a staple in not just my wardrobe but all of my clients. The collections are seasonless and impeccably designed for the modern working woman.

The photo also was taken during my trip to Moscow. Luckily, one of the days was warm enough to wear a skirt. Here I am sporting my wardrobe staples; Prabal Gurung Blazer, Comme de Garcon button-up, Linda Farrow sunglasses, a dodo bar leather skirt, and a python backpack from Proenza Schouler. Both of my accessories are vintage! The earrings are from a random 80’s brand that I found at Williamsburg boutique, and my rings were all found in a hidden Pasaj in one of the alleyways of Istanbul.

During NYFW, I pulled out one of my all-time favorite looks! The red leather suit I purchased in New York from Malins Vintage - long story short, the minute I slipped my body into this piece, I began trembling with an invigorating force of energy (something that doesn’t happen often). The “SHE” shirt is from a collaboration between Paco Rabben x Peter Saville I purchased from PIA the store. The fur I discovered on an incredibly cold afternoon from a random vendor who was selling them on the side of the street in Manhattan. The leather metal harness is from Search and Destroy, initially purchased for an underground bondage event in Brooklyn <— that's a whole other story! The vintage Norma Kamali puffer bag was a gift from fellow stylist Shannon Jett.

I don't often dress femininely, but when I do, there's always a dark edge. I would describe this as goth chic. I layered my zebra mock blouse designed by my dear friend/fellow Iranian creative Dorian Who with a leather dress designed by David Koma and my spacy thigh-high boots by Void Shoes from Moscow. To add a punch of color, I paired this look back with a vintage wool violet cape I purchased from a Dobbins Vintage in Williamsburg.

I attended MBFW Moscow in October 2019, and there were days when the weather was incredibly cold, so I heavily relied on soft layering to stay warm in between the shows. I'm a huge fan of upcycling, and a large chunk of my wardrobe is full of vintage. The white denim coat I found at RELOVE, the fur is vintage Saks 5th Avenue I purchased at Beacon's Closet in NYC, the leather belt was custom designed by my friend Tamu from STRAPT, the culotte + hat I found at a small vintage boutique in Portugal. The boots I purchased last minute from Zara because I couldn’t bring myself to pay the hefty fee for the real ones from McQueen.

Here I am wearing a Stella McCartney Blazer, vintage American Apparel hoodie, vintage Victoria Secret slip that I purchased from a vendor at the Melrose Fairfax flea market, and last but not least my Alexander Wang heels! The ring I’m wearing is from Rona Pfeiffer.
