Ochoa has worn many couture pieces, including,[5][6] Walter Mendez, Alejandro Fajardo, Giovanni Scutaro, Willfredo Gerardo and Glaudi Johana. The artist Retna was inspired by Ochoa and her work with such organizations as Beautify Earth and named her muse, creating urban billboard artwork in her likeness. The artwork can be seen in West Hollywood (Sunset and San Vicente).[7]
