What do you want your style choices to say about you?

I wear what I feel before I consider what’s expected. Some days that means dressing for joy. Other days it’s armour. Always, it’s homage: to mentors, stage legends and my late mom — who unknowingly shaped the silhouette of my spirit. Style, to me, is a language we speak before we say hello. And, in my 50s, I’m here to tell you — there’s no rulebook for legs like mine. Trailblazer? I’ll take it.

 

What is your favourite Calgary event of the year?

The Grandstand Show at the Calgary Stampede. And yes, I’m a little biased — I’ve composed the score for over 30 years. But the real thrill is watching people show up with fresh takes on Western glam. I say, “Make it a ritual never to repeat an outfit.” Fashion should stampede, too.
