#KNEONKID Briana Laemel in Assembly New York for Urban Outfitters

| |



Brooklyn-based Briana is a BB to say the least. The 22 year-young Sagittarius works as the Assistant Merchandiser for Dover Street Market New York and loves oreos.

Kelsea Kosko photographs the self-proclaimed suburban girl in New York, wearing AZY4UO, a new exclusive collection of future-primitive pieces by Assembly New York for Urban Outfitters.






What was the last thing that happened to you, which boosted your career?

I graduated! Then left a stagnant job for the once in a lifetime opportunity given to me by DSMNY.

What is at the top of your priority list this week?

That depends on which list! I'm currently chipping away at three.

Which three films would you whole heartily recommend?

One of these things is not like the others: Rosemary's Baby, Annie Hall, and Die Hard.







Favorite junk food?

We vegans do love our Oreos...

What is your remedy for a rainy day?

Pretending I'm in London. Who says you can't be in two places at once?

What would be the first thing you would do if you won a million dollars today?

I'd grab my best friend, hop on a flight to Germany (sans return), and start creating the Berlin-based brand we've always dreamed of.






How would you describe the importance of creativity and/or confidence in your life or in general?

Confidence is everything. In an industry like this - and a city like New York - if you don't believe in yourself, nobody will.
