I'm happy with embellishment in a chunky Prada-esque way, but I'm not into sequins!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Some people need sequins, others don't.
It is a real pleasure to collaborate with Frida Giannini and Gucci to celebrate one of the House's most elegant symbols: the horsebit.
I love the opportunity to get properly dressed up. I've worn three Lanvin dresses, and they've all been a dream. They're so well made, with the most beautiful craftsmanship. I don't tend to go with things that are ornate - just beautifully made pieces and some classic jewelry. Let the work speak for itself. I love that.
I have only one prejudice in horseflesh - I do not like a white one.
My contention is that that style is just as stylized as an ornate style.
I love fashion, but it's always been my job, whereas horseriding is my hobby.
While I tend to keep embellishment minimal as my clients often possess some of the finest jewellery, I enjoy creating ornamentation that appears like installations, to compliment the overall look.
I quite love sequins; I think it's the drag queen in me.
I definitely was in the sequined, bedazzled era. We would put blue eye shadow up our eyebrows and glitter all over our faces. I probably put more effort into my skating outfits than my clothes.
I always try to balance the light with the heavy - a few tears of human spirit in with the sequins and the fringes.
