“As a little girl, dressing up for events in New Orleans was always the time I felt most myself. This city and the people in it sparked my passion for design which has become a career in fashion. I now reside in Bozeman, Montana, so participating in this project I have followed for years (as I previously worked for past artist Nicole Paloma) in my home would be very special. This project is also impactful to me as multiple women in my life have struggled with breast cancer and the confidence challenges that come even after winning fight.” Clothing Design by Candi Gordon
“I am nominating Melanie- this is Sara Reardon, former Fleur de Bra model and local influencer The Va**na Whisperer. Melanie is a beautiful human who has courageously overcome a battle with breast cancer at the age of 42. She is an art director and curator, alumni of Loyola University, and has the most vibrant spirit. She would be an incredible model and deserves this honor. “
