Trends come and go, but senior Natalie Spack’s love for fashion will never go out of style. Spack started showing an interest in fashion when she was around seven years old.

“I have three older sisters so we’re all in to fashion,” Spack said.

In her free time or whenever she gets the urge, she designs clothes.

“I like designing nice, evening dresses,” Spack said. She will doodle anything when she gets the inspiration to do so.

“I can of course get inspiration from looking in magazines and stuff but a lot times when I draw that kind of stuff I’ll get my inspiration for my fashion from paintings or different stuff that I see, cool like modern art,” She said.

Spack’s interest in clothes and fashion is easily understood just by looking at her. The inspired senior puts together parcels of clothing to create her own look.

“A lot of times I’ll get it from music; it doesn’t just have to be fashion that inspires other art. Art inspires other art, Spack said.

Although she does not plan on pursuing design as a career path, Spack hopes to continue designing and doodling on the side.
