Mondo

Mondo is one of the designers on project runway season 8.
He really is a very talented fashion designer.
He can make clothes, design something that normally everybody won't think that it's high fashion but he could make magic with it. His specialty is dealing with printed fabric.
In the recent challenge, designers were to design their own prints fabric based on their personal life.
I nearly cried when he told his story.
He designed a fabric with positive signs in it. His inspiration was that he was a HIV positive and have kept this a secret for 10 years, hiding it from everyone including his family member.
He initially didn't want to tell the story. But after that, one of the judges is curious on what kind of story that made him create that fabulous print fabric. and he told the story and he felt like he was free after telling everybody the secret behind it.
I kinda understand how he felt and really have to say "you are so brave!"
and he won the challenge! good luck to you mondo... hope you are one of the 3 finalist in the fashion week and can't wait to see ur collections on the runway. sure hope you win coz you are really really gifted in this industry :)
