What did it feel like when you found out you were one of the twelve designers chosen? You were on Project Runway Junior, season 1. I’ve never taken a sewing class prior to college.Ģ. At the beginning of 10th grade, I stopped making pocket tees because I was tired of doing the same routine and decided to teach myself actual clothing construction and design from online tutorials. Freshman year, my fashion blog, “Along The Lines of Ysabel” was born and I got involved with Nordstrom’s BP Fashion Board. I began to see people around my city wearing them, and eventually I shipped them out domestically and internationally. I started my own brand called “Along the Lines Pocket Tees” and it quickly gained popularity. I came across a picture of a patterned pocket tee on Tumblr and it all clicked. I was a broke fashionista who wanted cute clothes and at the same time I wanted to make some extra money. My goal was to make a name for myself by the time I graduated high school. I noticed that people my age didn’t know what they wanted to do with their lives, but I wanted to be different. Although I grew up cutting Barbie’s clothes and sketching designs, I didn’t become serious about fashion until I was about 12/13. I was born and raised in Southern California.
She also shared some tips for aspiring designers: “If you’re willing to put in the work, it will always pay off eventually. We were delighted to discuss her experiences and what the life of a teen designer looks like.

All her efforts paid off when she auditioned for Project Runway Junior and was chosen as one of 12 contestants. It was no wonder when, at the age of 13, she launched her own collection called “Along the Lines.” She continued exploring her passion by designing, launching a fashion blog and teaching herself clothing construction with online tutorials. The story begins with a young girl in Southern California who loved to sketch and cut clothes for Barbie. Ysabel Hilado starred on Project Runway Junior and lives to tell the fabulous tale. If you love fashion design, you probably binge-watched a season or twelve of Project Runway.
