You can get insular with fashion.

I'm about what goes through people's minds. The stuff that people don't want to admit or face up to. The shows are about what's buried in people's psyches.

Really, what I'm aiming for is world domination!

The reason I'm patriotic about Scotland is because I think it's been dealt a really hard hand. It's marketed the world over as . . . haggis . . . bagpipes. But no one ever puts anything back into it.

I just want to be a wallflower. Nondescript. Just not anything. I don't want to see me.

I spent a long time learning how to construct clothes, which is important to do before you can deconstruct them.

What I do is look at ancient African tribes, and the way they dress. The rituals of how they dress. . . . There's a lot of tribalism in the collections.
