MISS GEORGIA TEEN USA 2025: KALYSIA NEGRON
In addition to working with Miss Georgia, I have also had the honor and pleasure of designing and styling for Kalysia Negron, Miss Georgia Teen USA 2025. I worked with Kalysia and the Georgia Teen USA directors to design, style, and tailor looks worn by Miss Georgia Teen USA for pageant, press, and appearances for the Miss Teen USA 2025 pageant. Most notably, her custom state costume, which was ranked in the top 5 by the Miss Teen USA Judges.

I had the privilege of collaborating with my talented sister, Laney, to create Kalysia's custom Miss USA arrival outfit. I designed the look and constructed the dress, and she painted the most beautiful magnolias in various stages of bloom. The silhouette of the look was inspired by Atlanta, the city where Kalysia and I both grew up. The fitted blazer mini dress and thigh-high latex boots are an homage to the classic ATL Girlboss look, while the color story and florals highlight the southern-belle softness and aesthetic that reside in the heart of every Georgia girl.
