We all have a sense of style all our own, and sometimes we like to share that with the world. At least that is what fashion designer, Gina Sais Quoi, is passionate about. When it comes to fashion Gina is definitely a step ahead of all the others. Starting in her home ec. class is when she first sat down to a sewing machine and from there the rest is history. She is also a licensed stylist, graduate of the Paul Mitchell Academy in Connecticut. While in school she started doing some behind the scenes work on fashion shows, music videos and much more. Gina started designing when she was 14 years old.

Now sewing completely by hand and with no patterns, Gina organized her first fashion show for a senior project at just 17 years old. She is inspired by the famous store Trash And Vaudeville and anything that is not ordinary for today. When she would travel to New York, she made it a point to go to Trash and Vaudeville. Being that they are a little expense she would recreate, in her own way, her own designs. Aiming towards all shapes and sizes, now every girl can experience couture fashion and each design is original and made to fit you like a glove. Even though Gina does not have one specific person who inspired her to start sewing, she does however take inspiration for her line from different people, and or things. She has been in Florida for 1 1/2 years and will soon be launching her new 2014 Fashion line. Besides fashion design, Gina is an educator at my beauty school, The Salon Professional Academy.

In 2005, Gina launched Gina Sais Quoi designs. She not only designs clothes she also designs jewelry, handbags, swimsuits and has launched her own fragrance line. Each outfit, depending on detail, can take Gina between 1-14 hours to create. Back in Connecticut she joined the RAW Artists to enhance her line. Now here in Florida, she will be hosting a fashion show in Orlando, Florida for RAW on October 16. This will be her first time working with the Orlando crew. I am honored she has asked me to model for her.
