Hellen Wanjiku

Student

Vera beauty technical college

My name is Hellen wanjiku maina , I'm a student from Vera technical college in Nakuru Kenya .I'm pursuing diploma in fashion and design .Driven by passion for self expression .I see fashion as more than style it's a language ,a form of art,and a way to empower identity. I design with intention always aiming to bring fresh ideas to life thoughtful construction. Also I like fashion because of modelling .My dream is to design nice dresses for red carpet like the way I saw met gala it inspires me more . sometimes fashion it's like a therapy to me because it helps me release some stress by sketch and also doing more research on design and also I like to learn more about design and how to construct more design.

Semi casual

Category: Apparel

Competitions: Africa

About my skirt and the top my top is buster and also it have a chocker connected to the top through straps and also it have the fingerless gloves which are more comfortable while typing something in an office or working. On my skirts it has a decorative zips which is gold in colour to make it more classic.The goal was to create a garment that bridges the gap between casual comfort and I'm inspired by urban life and freedom of self expression and boost self esteem and confidence.
