the girl, the myth, the dumbass. let’s get to know her...
(please be aware of mentions of eating disorders, self harm, body image and prescription drug use in this introduction)
- Robin James Shore, birthday is April 14th. Big Aries energy.
-Oldest daughter of Jimmy Shore and his former long-term partner, Aubrey
- born and raised in Silver Lake, very much a “California girl”, generally had a happy childhood but did have some learning difficulties in school (sensory and focus issues)
-when she was young she was obsessed with being a dancer (no seriously, if you tried to take the remote from her when ‘so you think you can dance’ or ‘dancing with the stars’ was on she would bite you with zero regret or hesitation just ask bowie)
- she was highly decent at dance but not the kind of ~naturally talented~ that earns you a viable career in the art, but the girl is stubborn and doesn’t know when to quit to she persisted through her teen years
-constantly comparing herself to other dancers, being on the wrong end of somemean girl cliques in middle school, plus the amount of influence from magazines, television, and movies and hell just living in LA in general -- robin started to have a very toxic relationship with her body at the age of 13
- robin remained very effective at hiding her severe battle with anorexia and self harm until the age of sixteen. her older brother, bowie, had already suspect something was amiss. after a health incident at school that caused robin to end up in the er, bowie intervened and outed her secret to her parents
- robin was placed in an (albiet, very fancy) inpatient treament center called rosewood ranch in santa monica. at first, she was very bullheaded and angry, insisting that she didn’t need treatment and rufusing family visits purely out of spite for months
- it was slow going, but as robin gradually allowed herself to embrace help she thrived
-in treatment she was able to nature her love for art and design, sketching and sewing to her hearts content and creating clothing that she felt beautiful in for the first time in as long as she could remember
- she set herself a goal to apply for the parsons school of design as soon as she completed treatment -- it was her light at the end of the tunnel
- robin graduated treatment three months shy of her eighteenth birthday after almost two full years in the program
- a year later, with a respectful portfolio in hand, robin applied and was accepted to parsons in new york...only to find that the college fund she had been promised was gone
- devastated, and now with a severe rift between her and her father, robin worked to find other ways to see through with her dream
- she spent three years working as an assistant to a los angeles stylist, rubbing shoulders with celebrities and dressing them for events all while often pulling all nighters to work on her own designs
- at the age of 23, robin applied to be on a season of project runway. her youth, sassy personality, and openess about her struggles with body image, along with her designs made her an immediate fan favorite on her season
- after approximately 3 close elimination calls, robin excelled through to the final four, getting the opportunity to create her own collection for new york fashion week
- she came second runner up, which was disappointing, but the offers to further her career came rolling in after the finale
- she was offered an apprenticeship in berlin, where she has been for the last six months
- she is returning to LA in hopes of starting her own fashion line
- she has recently hit 1M followers on instagram who follow her for her style tips and design previews
personality:
- 🥰 🔪🌼
- i swear she is a reall nice girl, she just refuses to pull punches. she is always going to be honest about the way she feels (unless it hurts her pride)
-spicy lil temper. sassy. can hold a grudge until the day she dies if she wants to
-but would throw hands for the people that she loves
wanted connections:
- i know she has a lot of built in family connects so if that’s you please come hold my hand and HELP
- she’s been in silver lake all her life so gimme ride or die friend squads, neighbors, former coworkers or classmates, people she knows through the fashion industries, people she runs into in bars, former flames, flirtationships that havent managed to go anywhere, etc etc
-no seriously float me an idea and ill usually run with it if it works
