About Me :: Yanni D::dot::net

I'm a young urban latina fashionista making the streets of NYC my runway. Born in New York City and raised in Brooklyn, NY I've seen the trends come and go and always had my own style. Like most little girls, I wanted to be everything under the stars from a doctor to a professional dancer. In the midst of all that being a fashion stylist and/or designer was at the top of my list. Watching fashion shows on TV and wishing, hoping and praying one day I'd be able to get to Bryant Park definitely became a major dream of mine. Throughout my life I have had a lot of setbacks in trying to take my interest in fashion to the next level, but my faith never wavered. Fashion became more of an interest to me; it became my passion. I stand by the late Coco Chanel's motto "Fashion fades, but style remains the same." Creating a work of art through clothes is not only inspirational, but rewarding. I like to take the trends that have been provided for our society and think out of the box with it. My personal style has always been my personal style and now as an up and coming stylist I can illustrate that in various ways.

I graduated with a BA from an accredited 4 year instituion. Then I went to the Fashion Institue of Technology for a two year program in fashion styling. Since then I have worked backstage for several runway shows during NYC fashion week and designer presentations. I've worked with up and coming creatives in all aspects of the industry from photographers to models and I hope to continue to do that and thensome. Fashion is my passion and a beautiful form of art that I create through pieces.
