cracks
Sometimes the whole thing cracks me up, it's so absurd,
limited planned producing
It's not like I planned on producing it - but I would like it if someone wanted to do a limited edition,
together literature influence
I had a lot of classical influences. I had classical music and opera and literature, but I also liked sleaze. And putting it together, sleaze and glamour, it just made sense to me.
fields learn
I can't think of too many other fields where you can learn all of this on the job.
fashion
The whole fashion thing is so oversaturated.
fashion brilliant
I don't even know what's brilliant in fashion anymore. There are too many voices.
fashion independent thinking
I would really think twice about being a fashion designer if I was young right now, especially being an independent fashion designer the way I started it.
work-out body looks
Working out is modern couture. No outfit is going to make you look or feel as good as having a fit body. Buy less clothing and go to the gym instead.
style care aphrodisiac
The coolest thing is when you don’t care about being cool anymore. Indifference is the greatest aphrodisiac - that’s what really sums up style for me.
simple shoes clothes
Hair and shoes say it all. Everything in between is forgivable as long as you keep it simple. Trying to talk with your clothes is passive-aggress ive.
attractive-things vulnerable can-do
Allowing yourself to be vulnerable is also one of the most attractive things you can do.
landscape destroying
Stop destroying the landscape with your outfit.
fashion style
Fashion can be cruel. Style is a gift to others.
fashion book sandwiches
Every jacket I make has interior pockets big enough to store a book and a sandwich and a passport.
