My name is Jésula Augustin, many people know me by the name Zilie Bazilo. I come from the north of the country, specifically in the city of Cap-Cape, I grew up in Port-au-Prince. I have a passion for everything related to the country’s culture, I learned to dance the traditional dance of the country which is folklore and I studied legal sciences at the University of Notre-Dame d’Haïti. Appearing on the pages of this magazine would not only be an honor for me, it would be like a dream taking shape. I am a young woman with a clear vision: launching a wedding dress collection called BOHIO COLLECTION, which sheds light on our culture, on what should be our tradition, and supports my community with love and dignity.
I believe in simple but meaningful beauty. I believe every Haitian deserves to feel like a king on their wedding day. And visibility on the pages of this magazine will help me make my voice heard, showing that my project is not just about clothes, but about hope, about change, and about roots.
