Other than the obvious, like Cher and Diana Ross, I actually find a lot of inspiration from time periods. So it's not necessarily people, it's the essence of the time period, whether it be the '90s or the '70s or the '40s. The specific time and what vibe it gave you, what the emotion of that time was, and trying to get that emotion again.
Zendaya
It's important to know when to take your time and not overspend and overdo things, of course. That's why you get things that can be dressed in a thousand different ways.
