I am constantly trying to reflect the way women are treated. It's hard to interpret that in clothes or in a show but there's always an underlying, sinister side to women's sexuality in my work because of the way I have seen women treated in my life. Where I come from, a woman met a man, had babies, moved to Dagenham, two up two down, made the dinner, went to bed. That was my image of women and I didn't want that. I wanted to get that out of my head.

If you're an open book, there's no allure.

You've got to know the rules to break them. That's what I'm here for, to demolish the rules but to keep the tradition.

Fashion is self confident and fearless.

It's almost like putting armor on a woman. It's a very psychological way of dressing.

I work with people I admire and respect. It's never because of who they are.

I think I should be a president. President of the United States.
