    How would you describe your look for the show?

    We decided on a classic style knitted dress with a beautiful colour-blocked collar, as well as some black heeled boots. I feel like choosing this look was rather easy. It was the first option I tried on and instantly felt like it was the perfect match for the show.

    What was your inspiration for the beauty?

    We went with a classic glam with a soft smudged eyeliner and an up-do to highlight the neckline of the dress. The hair has twists to the front, which adds some more personality to the look.

    What are you most looking forward to about attending the Louis Vuitton show?

    To see the setting of the show and the incredible looks that other guests are wearing. Seeing everyone’s self-expression manifest through their outfits is always an exciting surprise.

    What’s your earliest memory of Louis Vuitton?

    My mother would carry a Louis Vuitton bag every time we would go out when I was growing up. I remember thinking it was such a special piece and every time she would carry it she looked like the epitome of style.

    How would you describe your personal style?

    I feel like I’m still in the process of discovering the full magnitude of my personal style, but I tend to gravitate towards more neutral tones and simple pieces. I love finding elements that pop in the outfit, whether it be a colour or texture. I try to find a statement piece to pull the look together.

    As an actor, does every new look you try feel like stepping into a new character?

    Without a doubt. I like to truly embody a look and I suppose that is taking on a new character in a way. Embracing that energy or characteristic of the outfit feels like stepping into a role and getting to experience the world through this character is always a treat.
