In Her Shoes

Written by: Anita Moffett (AKA Aniyah)

Wouldn’t you be flattered if a street, or a monument was named after you? How much more complimentary would it be if a posh designer’s shoe label were your namesake?

For aspiring model Arianna Stephens that dream presented itself when Fashion and Footwear Designer Marc Defang named one of his designer heels after her. That’s right, the renowned native New Yorker Defang, did not hesitate to express his penchant for Stephens. 

The Marc Defang brand has dressed and accessorize girls and ladies since 1999. Leading with custom made distinct and infinite quality, craftsmanship, the Defang label has dominated the prom, pageant, and bridal footwear arenas!

It is no wonder why Defang chose the Style Spokesmodel Stephens to be the inspiration for the Arianna shoe. Like the Defang brand, Arianna Stephens exudes a lifestyle of quality and integrity. At just the age of sixteen, to her credit:

• Honor Roll student "Gifted and Talented Encounter Program"
• Pageant Queen for Young American Miss International Pageant.(Arianna started doing pageants at the age of nine)
  
• Arianna recently has launched her Non-Profit Anti-Bullying program “Don’t Be Sorry” where she advocates for anti-bullying by sharing her own experiences and methods on defeating the behavior.
