I am Letizia Long 

GRATED stands for a lifestyle lived for God’s Glory — and that’s exactly what this brand is all about.

Over 20 years ago, when I gave my life to Christ, I asked God a simple but heartfelt question: “How can I worship and glorify You?” I told Him, “I can’t sing. I can’t dance. And I struggle to spark conversations about my faith.”

And that’s when God spoke to my heart and said, “Use what you know.”

What I knew — and loved — was fashion and storytelling. I studied at the High School of Fashion Industries in New York and later took fashion courses at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. I also earned a Bachelor's Degree in Digital Filmmaking and Video Production, where I learned the power of visual communication.

GRATED Apparel was born from that calling — a creative blend of my passions for faith, fashion, and film. Just like a movie tells a story, our lives are a testimony, and what we wear can be a powerful witness. GRATED is more than just T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, and accessories. It’s a collection of walking billboards for Christ — clothing that speaks before you do, designed to open hearts and conversations.

This is fashion with purpose. This is worship in motion.
This is GRATED — for God's Glory.
