Read our interview with Kelly below!

What High School do you go to and what grade will you be in the Fall?
I attend Lindenhurst High School and i will be entering the 11th grade.

Describe your social group and what you like to do for fun.
I met my friends in my classes and since I am in all-honors I ended up with very intelligent friends. We like to do what most teenagers do: go to the movies, shop, and things like that. .

What do you want to do when you "grow up"?

I want to work in the fashion field somewhere. I am not exactly sure what I want to do yet, but something in the field and definitely not designing, since I am not artistic. I would like to do something somewhere in the marketing aspect of fashion.


What trends for fall are you most excited about wearing and why, and which trends will you avoid and why?

I love the skinny jeans. I am very excited to be able to wear those. I will most likely be avoiding the leggings since I have not been a huge fan of them from the beginning.

If you could afford to dress in any designer, which one would it be and why?
I love Betsey Johnson's designs because they are funky-chic and somewhat out there. I like the idea of making a statement with a dress and Betsey Johnson's dresses accomplish that. I would want a Chanel suit when I enter the business world because they are classic and just absolutely beautiful.

Describe style in Long Island.
In Long Island there are a lot of different styles. Since we are so close to the city, a lot of the trendy styles are also seen throughout Long Island. You also see a lot of chain-store apparel such as Holister, Abercrombie, and American Eagle.

How do you think New York fashion differs from L.A. fashion?
I think that L.A. and New York fashion differ in a few ways. One way would definitely be impacted by the weather. In New York during the winter you see a lot of layering due to how cold it gets. I do not know how much of that you would see in L.A. since it does not get to the same temperatures.


Did winning this contest make you more or less interested in fashion or FIDM?
Winning this contest has made me more interested in fashion. I really enjoyed getting a taste of all different looks. I can definitely see myself with a career in fashion in the future.
