Episode Description

Erik Rosete started off as one of those marching band kids — always on the outside looking into the school, the world, and eventually, himself. He observes, learns, and survives in high school as an outsider who isolates himself. But that wasn’t everything. He had a dream: a dream where he puts on the most fabulous fashion show that surprises everyone. And that’s how he navigated his life. Erik found himself later in his life composing a song-like dream that he would spend the rest of his life chasing. The opportunities and disappointments come and go, but Erik knew that he needed to focus on the present, the small things in life that he has succeeded in, and stop letting minor inconveniences decide the course of his life and his mentality. And that’s how he came to Art Hearts Fashion.
