Sita Abellan is Skyping me from an elevator. She’s on her way to get her nails done, but they look freshly manicured to me—long, silvery, shiny, and pointed, tipped with a fine glitter that gives them a mirror-like sparkle. When I point this out, she laughs. “My toenails,” she clarifies.
The 23-year-old DJ-model-designer grew up in Murcia, a small town in the south of Spain. She describes being a teenager there as “a little bit tough.” “I always liked to dress up—people looked at me as if I was crazy,” she says. Borrowing her mother’s vintage pieces and “wearing, all the time, black clothes,” she characterizes her younger self as “a bit of a goth.” Judging from the rainbow of sportswear on her Instagram, her wardrobe is less moody these days—but with her signature blue hair, diamanté S&M chokers, and fetish for patent leather, there’s still a trace of the cyberpunk teen she once was. Also, when our connection cuts out for a second, I notice she’s wearing a Slayer T-shirt in her profile picture.
