OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | DECEMBER 2018
Branjae
Entertainer, musical creator, artist Tulsa
How/when did you get interested in fashion? Since I was
old enough to dress my Barbies and baby dolls – around 4 years old. How would you describe your style? Expressive, creative, thrifty. How does your style reflect your personality? My style mimics my personality. I dress up my body according to how I feel day to day. How does fashion affect your day-to-day life? It makes me project outward what I’m feeling inside. It can also change my mood. What items in your closet can you not live without? Black combat boots – the dancing kind. Whose closet would you love to raid? Janelle Monae. A trend you hate right now is … I saw a woman wearing a scrunchie as a fashion statement. If you could live in a different fashion era, it would be … the 1950s. You own too many … satin and silk button-up women’s blouses. Many prints, many colors. Too many ... but I just can’t seem to let them go. On the weekends, you are wearing … mixed patterns, an “after 5” vintage dress with black boots. Anything that flows – material, material and more material!

The clothes you choose to wear every day are what people first notice when you walk into a room. Whether you’re a fan of high-end, luxury labels, vintage frocks or flea market finds, whether you prefer to keep your color palette muted or as loud as can be, your sense of fashion defines your image. We caught up with some of Oklahoma’s most fashionable folks – entertainers, designers, restaurant owners – to pick their brains on how their fashion choices affect their day-to-day lives.
