As a designer who regularly works with models for runway shows, photoshoots, and international fashion events, Anna understands what designers look for when selecting talent. I’m honored and excited to serve as a casting judge and looks forward to discovering models who bring confidence, personality, professionalism, and their own unique presence to the runway.
Malcolm Staples is an award-winning, internationally published fashion designer and founder of Malcolm’s Custom Made To Fit. One of the premier custom clothiers in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area, he provides luxury services for discerning men and women.
In 2009, Malcolm launched his business with a commission to dress his nephew, LaMarr Woodley of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Inspired by his grandfather’s sense of style, Malcolm draws on the distinctive elegance of the 1950s in his designs.
Since 2021, his work has appeared on the covers of more than 200 national and international publications and editorials, including Harper’s Bazaar and ECLAIR. His honors include winning the Fashion and Beauty Olympics sponsored by Fashion Avenue News Magazine and being named Designer of the Year by the SITA and LH Luxe organizations.
Malcolm graduated from Eastern Michigan University and the International Academy of Design and Technology. He also earned a postgraduate certificate from Harvard Business School.
Amna Inam is a Pakistani-American entrepreneur, fashion trailblazer, and the founder of Randhawa Brands — a label built at the intersection of South Asian heritage and modern Western silhouette. Her path began in beauty and wellness, where she built a career in sales and personal branding, before a pivot toward media during the pandemic — hosting Friday Flakes and later The American Dream, a series on immigrant ambition in America.
In 2021 she launched Randhawa Brands, translating that same instinct for storytelling into cloth. Each collection carries a narrative of resilience and multicultural pride, staged across multiple seasons of fashion week in New York, Paris, Milan, Cairo, London, and Dubai, and covered by Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Flair Magazine, SHE Magazine, and more — including billboards in Times Square and NASDAQ in the heart of Manhattan.
She continues to design in service of something larger than the runway: a platform for women, immigrants, and South Asian voices to take up space on their own terms.
