I've always been big. I'm never going to be an underwear model. But I am who I am, and that has its advantages and disadvantages.

See, I will always shop, and that's sort of a problem. Clothes are always exploding out of my closet!

Though designed as a mere convenience, clothing sizes establish an unintended norm, an ideal from which deviations seem like flaws. There's nothing like a trip to the dressing room to convince a woman - fat, thin, or in between - that she's a freak.

I just wear jeans, big motorcycle boots and T-shirts that are way too big for me. I like anything that has lived a little bit, that has traces of life on it. Knitwear that's a tiny bit too long because you've pulled it with your hands, or jeans that are starting to get holes.

I was a bit overweight as a teenager, which may be why I'm more comfortable playing with clothes than showing my body.

I've always liked my clothes, even before I could properly afford them. Clothes for me were never a cloak, a cover. They were how I chose to express myself.

I don't feel comfortable defending my clothes. But if you've got the money to afford them, then buy something from me. Just don't buy too much.

I never have any clothes to go out in, because I always just buy for work. I don't know why. Habit.
