Clothes are fun. The designers have so much fun making them, you should have fun wearing them, too.

I am not interested in shock tactics. I just want to make beautiful clothes.

I think good tailoring and something that's well-made never gets boring or tiring.

I see potential in everything. It's about opening your mind to what you can do to the garment: because they're cheap, you can cut them or stitch them, and if you stuff it up, it's fine - it's only two dollars.

I was always interested in making clothing that is worn by people in the real world.

I very rarely wear suits, and only make one or two per season, so it's about wanting exceptional clothes that don't feel stiff. Fabric and garment washing are a big part of my design process for that reason. Everything needs to feel lived-in and comfortable.

The clothes I like are not necessarily tailored.

I'm a stylist, so I've been conditioned to setting up my own clothes like a fitting.

I love designing costumes that I can actually construct, working to create an environment that people want to be in.
