And now you live in: Logan Square

Favorite thing to do in Chicago? Anything at the Soho House. I’m always there.

One thing nobody knows about you? I took karate, briefly. Like, whatever belt you start with is about as far as I got.

If you could meet any historical figure, it would be: Andy Warhol

What are you wearing? I just had a casting but I’m all changed now. So, dark denim, black combat boots, a Nike Tech Pack hoodie and a Derek Lam coat.

Dream job? What I’m doing now is pretty darn close. But success is a moving target.

You love it when a man _________.
Has the courage to ask, “Can I take you out?” I respect a man who can set expectations from the get-go.

What’s your worst personal habit? Throwing clothes everywhere except my closet.

Biggie or Pac? Common?

Tarantino or Scorsese? Tarantino

Favorite muppet? I don’t know about favorites, but I was all about Fraggle Rock.

What’s your motto? Be more unapologetic. Own who you are and what you love.

Megan Lewis is a self-deprecating model. You can find her musings on life and fashion on her blog, Fussy. Megan’s German, Irish, African-American and Cherokee, and she met her birth family for the first time earlier this year. Ask her about it. Incredible story.
