Stylist/Creative director

Hi! I'm Alayna, a fashion stylist and creative director based in Miami, Florida. I'm drawn to bold color, playful styling, and creating images that make people feel something. I love using fashion as a form of storytelling, and I believe getting dressed should be fun, expressive, and never limited by rules. My goal is to help people embrace their individuality, step outside their comfort zone, and find confidence through personal style.

 

My perspective on fashion changed after experiencing a head injury. After losing my sense of taste and smell, it heightened my other remaining senses, and completely transformed the way I see the world. I became deeply connected to color, texture, and visual detail, which sparked a fascination with the relationship between creativity, emotion, and healing. That experience continues to shape every project I create and reminds me that life is too short not to wear what makes you happy.

 

I first studied marketing at the University of Miami before pursuing a bachelor's degree in Fashion Styling at Istituto Marangoni Miami, where I combined creative storytelling with a strong business foundation. Since then, I've had the opportunity to intern with leading celebrity stylists in Miami, work with incredible brands and talent, and style editorials that have been published internationally.

 

Whether I'm styling a campaign, developing an editorial concept, or collaborating with a creative team, I'm always looking for ways to tell bold, meaningful stories through fashion. At the heart of everything I do is the belief that fashion has the power to inspire confidence, spark emotion, and bring people together... and that it should always be fun along the way.
