the-end-of-the-day life-is ends
At the end of the day I separate things; my life is my life and my work is my work.
clothes feel-good looks
I can honestly say this industry hasn't made me neurotic about my looks, except maybe my weight. I hope my clothes kind of reflect that. They're meant to make you feel good.
hands skins needs
I don't use specific brands really. It's just that for my skin, I need as high an SPF factor as I can get my hands on. That's the only rule.
morning night eight
I literally have meetings at eight o'clock in the morning, and I finish at nine o'clock at night. It sounds pathetic, but I don't even have time to go shopping.
fashion facts used
I used to get embarrassed about the fact I liked fashion. I still get a bit cringy.
football kids play
More than anything I want to be fit so I don't get out of breath when I play football with the kids.
female going-for-it males
Most male painters have historically admired the female form. It's got a lot going for it.
meat-industry decision limits
Whether you eat meat of not, you can be part of this decision to limit the meat industry destroying our planet's resources.
spiritual thinking practice
I think deep down I'm spiritual, but there's nothing I practice.
fashion work-out bits
I ride my bike, I work out, I do a bit of, er, dancey things.
good-life hate sadness
You feel like everyone hates you if you've got a good life, now I feel maybe it's allowed because I've had my share of sadness.
fashion animal thinking
I think the moment that I'm very proud of is building a business without using animals. And, hopefully, changing people's perception of how you can do luxury fashion.
sexy technology thinking
For me, women's ski wear has always been black and, again, not as feminine or sexy as I think it could look while still having the technology there.
plans
I don't plan massively in advance.
