i-D Magazine '10 Fresh Faces'




Aamito Lagum

Where are you from?


Well, in Uganda, when someone asks "where are you from?" it refers to where your parents are from, your origin. So in that sense, I am from a small village called Dure. However, I grew up in Kampala, Uganda.


What do you do?


I help translate a designer's vision into physical form by bringing clothing to life. That's how I view my job as a fashion model.


What do you like most about the opposite sex?


Men are unlike us. It is that simple.


When did you first become aware of your sexuality?


I remember watching The Lion King and being drawn to Mufasa's well-cut mane, the crisp depth of his voice, and the strength he exuded.


What is the biggest gender stereotype we need to overcome and why?


Alpha male syndrome. In the US, the culture seems to be more progressive but in Uganda there is always a stigma of being a woman.

“I’m really taken with Aamito, who I think is wonderful both in front of the camera and on the catwalk. She has an amazing strength in both her look and her character and she is a pleasure to work with.”​

She was Childish Gambinos date at the CFDA she looked awesome.
 
She's so smart and interesting, I loved that little i-D interview.

Her regal demeanor kills me everytime.
 
Her CFDA look is everything. Lagum wins the night IMO.
