For me the safety pin is about rebellion, and I'm punk in the soul.

Fashion needs fresh blood, and London is the most creative place for that.

If I could dress anyone, I'd like to dress the Queen - she can handle anything. I'd put her in black - she never wears black - and add a little leather, maybe. A little rock n' roll.

I was always crazy even before the drugs.

Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream.

When my mother did fittings for her clients, I was hiding, looking at these beautiful ladies try on these fantastic clothes. I was dreaming as a small child to try these clothes on myself.

I've learned how to appreciate what I have. And it's a lot. I'm very lucky.
