I have previously been a very enthusiastic consumer, and I didn't think about the origins of garments enough.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Clothing started as an armor for me. It was one of the ways that I protected myself from the world. It evolved into a form of creative expression.
I really have a generation gap about modern clothes.
I don't understand what modern clothes are about at all.
A lot of people made their first luxury fashion purchase, but at a discount. And that made it an easier purchasing decision.
I realised I wanted to make clothing which was as universal as jeans and T-shirts.
I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes.
I wish I was more into clothes. I don't know the current designers.
I buy the best fabrics from small mills in Italy. That is the basis for my clothes.
I never had a massive desire to buy clothes. I liked to customise the clothes I already had or was given when I was younger. If I didn't like them that much, I made them how I wanted them to be.
I guess the big thing is that I don't buy anything first-hand. It's a personal policy I have for all sorts of reasons. If you research to the textile industry yourself, you'll know why. I came to it personally.
