I take these UV protective sunglasses by GLVSS everywhere with me. Not only do they protect my eyes but they also give any outfit a chic touch. The pink-tinted lenses allow me to truly live my life La Vie En Rose. My Stüssy bucket hat is always in my bag for bad hair days or if the sun is too bright.
Stüssy is one of my favorite brands because every piece can be both minimal or a statement piece. After I got a pocket mirror as a bridesmaid gift, I always carry it in my purse. The crystal heart and engraving has an early 2000’s style. This mirror is a lifesaver if I need to touch up my makeup and an adorable keepsake. Heely’s are a fun addition to any outfit. I love gliding around with these neon pink shoes at the mall, park, and grocery stores. They also glow in the dark, making this the ideal shoe for summer raves.
With the summer heat, drinking water is very important and this water bottle makes hydration convenient. My Stojo water bottle is collapsable and allows me to store it anywhere, even in a small purse, without making my bag too … Read more!
“Notice what you like and what you dislike to start developing your style…You can always acquire skills such as sewing later, it is not important, the most important thing is to find your style.” – Miceala Giulianelli
By Maya Fuentes
Inspired by nature around her, Miceala Giulianelli created a collection of chic and contemporary designs that were shown as a part of Modello Nuovo’s first semi annual fashion show. Giulianelli enjoys giving a new perspective to classic shapes by reimagining them with modern fabrics like leather, offering her audience designs they are sure to remember. She defines her style as unique, modern, and eye-catching, traits that are obvious to those captivated by Giulianelli’s designs on the runway. While she hopes everyone is inspired by her designs, Giulianelli explains, “My target audience is women who want to feel powerful and confident in what they wear.”
At just 17, her personal style follows normal teen trends varying heavily from what she creates. Giulianelli envisions her contemporary and sophisticated pieces being worn at the office or as a statement for a special occasion.
A word of advice she’d give to other teens looking to start designing at her age, “Notice what you … Read more!

A note from the president
“What does Modello Nuovo stand for? In Italian, it means New Model. For our publication, it means not only literally “New Model”, but a new model or style of publication. The differences are in how we are sharing the fashion world with you, our readers.
We will not only highlight young models within the age range of 12 to 25, but additionally the designers, photographers, and fashion writers that may
“Sometimes all a woman needs is a “statement piece” to pull her look together; so why not throw on a kimono? I founded Ziba Kimonos by Kiana Kouture to fulfill a long time dream to empower women, regardless of skin color or size, to feel fabulous in their clothes!”- Kiana
Who doesn’t love that one perfect piece that can pull together any outfit.. Whether it’s a beautiful cocktail dress, your swimsuit while on vacation, or your favorite jeans and t-shirt, the kimono is a beautiful way to do just that!
We had a chance to get to know the designer behind the kimonos, Colorado resident residing in beautiful Monument, Kiana!
How long have you been a resident of Denver?
I’ve lived in CO for most of my life (almost 46 years). My family moved from Flushing, NY to Colo. Springs shortly after I was born. When my mom was diagnosed with cancer she returned for treatment, and ultimately lost her battle while in N.Y. and is buried there.
I attended CSU Ft. Collins after graduation and have spent the majority of my life in beautiful Colorado. I currently live in Monument and enjoy exploring and shopping in Denver (especially the … Read more!
