That means nothing without reliable, independent references. See
WP:SOURCES. Interviews and short blurbs on blogs do not count. While I think the speedy deletion will be denied, the article will be put up for deletion by other mean unless sources are added.

RfC: Is the self-published source an acceptable source for Boi's own new collection?
Not exactly. If it isn't mentioned in sources meeting
WP:RS I'd argue it isn't appropriate to include it as it will only be promotional without evidence of independent interest in it.

I think it depends on the information sourced to it. For instance I think its an okay source for: "In 2014 Stevie Boi created his collection entitled "X2SEA" inspired by his trip to St Thomas Virgin islands. The collection is very colorful and reminds him of the islands, including Colorful prints and bright elaborate gemstones" since he can be his own source about what "inspires" him and what things "remind him of". [
This page] is a little troubling though. Although the quote in question appears to have been removed from the article, the whole article seems pretty promotional. Seems to me like the real problem here is that the guy isn't really notable enough to have much to say that doesn't sound promotional.

What I am saying is that not everything that meets our source criteria should be in the article. Otherwise, in this case, we'd be adding promotion. If the collection is significant enough to have attracted media etc attention that we should use those sources to discuss it.
