Fittings are boring, but it's fun when you get to wear something new and go to a new event. I have a massive say in what I wear - I work really closely with my stylist.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As the stylist, sometimes you see things that you love that don't work, and that's OK. That's why we have fittings!
For someone who comes from my business background, getting fashion people aligned around certain things can be a challenge. In a way, the industry is so forward-looking. And yet, sometimes people in fashion are not open to change.
I've got quite a curvy shape so I try to wear stuff that's tailored.
Costume designers don't care about trends. They appreciate, above so many other qualities, that tailoring is everything, which is a mantra for the way I dress. Ladies: The most important thing in clothing is to find a good, inexpensive tailor, because clothes at the stores are made for bodies that are anomalies.
One of the best parts about my job is that I get to dress for red carpets and appearances, and I often forgo working with a stylist because fashion is half the fun of any event!
Oh, I'm hardly stylish! I'm such a mess. I don't even think about what I'm going to wear; it's the last thing I think about.
I've never felt that I've had some great fashion sense of my own - I tend to wear what my wife tells me to wear.
I hate picking out outfits for events. That's why I always wear the same thing when I go out - OK, not exactly the same, but always something easy. If it isn't a big fashion event, it'll be jeans and a nice top.
I'm a stylist, so I've been conditioned to setting up my own clothes like a fitting.
I'm guilty of going to a fitting, then going out to buy the same outfit. It's been a problem for my bank account!
