Spotlight on AKD Junior Designer Mackenzie - Age 14


Blog #4: Following Mackenzie, Age 14, Michigan: Mackenzie describes herself as outgoing, funny, nice and bubbly. She loves to play with makeup and come up with many different looks and products. She spends most of her time in dance and gymnastics, just learning how to flip this summer! She loves bright colors, especially pink, purple, turquoise, peachy red and aqua. (Then we are certain Mackenzie adored Julia's design unveiled earlier this month!)

We asked Mackenzie, "Why are you excited to be an AKD Junior Designer?" Mackenzie said, "I've always wanted to design and create costumes. I just started to sew this summer and love it!" Mackenzie won't need to sew anything during this process, but we know who to call when in case of emergency!

Our first step in welcoming Mackenzie to the AKD Junior Designer program was sending her the WELCOME PACKAGE! This included her Junior Designer T-shirt, some directions on getting started, and her very own electronic drawing pad, just like the one Angela uses when creating costume sketches for some of the most famous cheer and dance teams in the world!


Check back in the coming weeks as we unveil Mackenzie's sketches and follow her on her AKD Junior Designer journey.

About the AKD Junior Designer Program: Our intentions in creating the AKD Role Models "Junior Designer" program are to promote design and creativity in our society's youth. We want to reach out to young designers and help them to realize their goals of becoming future fashion leaders. We hope that these Junior Designers will influence more children and teens to become young leaders and encourage them to follow their designing dreams.
