How has your hometown influenced your work?

I'm from the IE (Inland Empire) which Is San Bernardino County In Cali [which is 45 to an hour out of LA for those who don't know]. We don't have many creative representatives that rep IE hard In a global way, many of us grew up In very local minded homes from family and friends because of our environment. I know a lot of people who are not from big cities places like LA, NY, ATL feel like this too because no one ever comes looking for us. That alone has made me want to, and I will, bring and attract all opportunities, networking, events, motivation, inspiration, omg FUN and currency for my city & people. We deserve It, I want to get everyone out of that "Fan" like mind and really start to BECOME who they wish to be. I make music, I like to call It Runway Music find out for yourself why! And since I AM from the IE, I do got some partyyy music (whoever's from the west coast knows what I mean aha). Man I got billion dollar Ideas and people with potential who can help make a difference In this world. That was just a PIECE of how my city has helped Influence my work.
My IG Is @Beautifulviewsonly for those who wanna fwm
I am from Santa Cruz - Bolivia.
Everything is really new here, its the fastest growing city in Latin América. And my photoseries were always seeking for identity, it all started with poetry, then its music. And now my focus is on its history, wich somehow people dont really know about, to seek new point of views about the history of my hometown
My hometown is Miami, FL and we are party, sun, chic environment. Our city is fresh, colorful and expressive. Now more than ever, comfort is becoming a big thing in the industry. So, I’m just infusing the fresh, fun, chic clothing and add comfort along
Anyone wants to follow my page! I will start posting videos and follow me on IG:@melaniedayne
As a mixed woman myself, I totally understand where Simone is coming from. Us mixed people are a bridge between cultures to get to know one another, to understand each other. We make them family :)
Really liked aspects of this and enjoyed her talking about her childhood home and the creative energy of London...though it would be super refreshing to see more from designers who made it AND didn't come from financial privilege and families with fashionista connections (like late Alexander McQueen)
Yes, I think the same
I liked that they featured a designer I'd never heard of. And a woman of color. Alexander McQueen gets a lot of press.
BE FOREAL🙄🙄
You need serious financial backing to have a business like hers. She is very lucky to be in the position she is in.
I really love her work and I think she is underrated as you can tell from the amount of comments...i feel she is honest and gets to the point unlike some other designers who act so intellectual. I wish I had the opportunity to learn fashion design, it would be never boring to apply your ideas to art.
I’m Irish & always loved Hong Kong (I did an exchange programme there in my late teens) and of course I love London. I can’t believe I didn’t know about this amazing designer until now!
This is not fashion, this is work of art!
I loooove her ❤️ I dream to wear her piece on my wedding day ❤️❤️
Yes! You’re doing us proud! Éireann abú 🇮🇪
She makes me so proud to be irish. What a beautiful person
I love this woman! My very favorite designer! Her clothes are works of art.
Love this so much! Please do more of these fashion designer features!! It's so cool hearing their stories and background!!!
This is exactly what I needed. Super inspiring to see!!!
So so inspiring! Love how her heritage influences her work 💕
Yes everything I see / hear can effect my art, things that are interesting for me at the time that I experience them effects me
I just met her but I love her ❤️ thank you for the inspiration
watching this, i fell in love even more with her collections ✨💞💯
I was wondering where in Dublin she’s from because she has a posh accent. Then I saw her childhood home. Oh my gosh wow.
Simone rocha I love your designs so much!!
One of the most underrated videos ever
Very clean 💙
HK is such an inspiring place
Truly gem.
Inspiring
love her
wow that teach is huge
I honour her work.
Dope
I love her dresses. I wish she made dresses in larger sizes, though. Fashion will catch up one day.
Chloe same. the "largest" model I've seen her dress is Tess McMillan who's only like a 14 lol which is honestly just the average size most women wear
1:00 is for people wondering how to pronounce her surname correctly

Wish I had the money to travel and look for international job opportunities...
