Kier Mellour
What is your background in terms of formal education or fashion expertise?
I studied Communications and Marketing in school with a minor in Color Theory. My first job was as the women’s buyer at a local boutique when I was 15; I continued to work retail until I was 21. I started my blog in 2012 and began learning the ins-and-outs of the fashion world firsthand. I was always a hands-on learner—the kind who has to make my own mistakes, so jumping right into owning my own business as a blogger was the best education I could have asked for.
How would you describe your personal style/sense of fashion?
Glamorous, tailored, and slightly over-the-top!
How would you describe DVF as a brand?
DVF is all about making women feel good, inspiring confidence, empowering women through bold, classy yet sexy attire.
What’s your go-to item in your closet?
An A-line mini skirt…I have soooo many!
What fashion item/accessory is on your wish list?
A black Chanel classic 2.55 double flap bag with CC turn closure and gold hardware.
Why do you specifically want to work for DVF?
DVF has always been there and done that in every facet of the field, and the way she aspires to inspire is a gift I hope to one day possess. Additionally, I plan on someday having my own empire similar to DVF’s or Lauren Conrad’s and I feel that I could learn the most in a hands-on environment.
Why should you be selected as the Global Brand Ambassador for DVF?
I should be selected because there’s a lot more to me than meets the eye. Hard work is the most important thing to me and I believe my travel experience will help me excel as a global force. I have also endured hardships that empower and inspire me to make positive changes in the world, and I know working with DVF will allow my charitable goals to be realized.
If you become the Global Brand Ambassador, how will you define the role and make it yours?
I would love to design a piece for DVF as Brand Ambassador which would benefit a charity dedicated to ending bullying and offering counseling for those who have suffered from bullying.
Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?
I see myself owning a site like DVF’s or Lauren Conrad’s i.e. a fashion/lifestyle website/blog, an accessory line (maybe clothing too), writing a book, starting a charity, as well as being a mom and wife.
Do you have a party trick or hidden talent? If so, what is it?
Nothing I can describe…I’d have to show you!
