What I find difficult about photo shoots is the line between playing a character - you're being asked by the photographer to take on a role like you would in a movie - and being a fancier version of yourself. It's about finding that line between being spontaneous and open to direction, but also trying to explain to photographers that the "me" is often taken out of context because it has all of this other stuff attached to it.

There's nothing interesting about looking perfect—you lose the point. You want what you're wearing to say something about you, about who you are.

I paint and I draw and I write and I do other things too, and recently some people at school were asking if I'd ever publish any of my work. But I almost feel like I would have to publish it under another name because there's a definition of me out there that feels kind of stuck in the moment when it was formed.

I'm not going to school just for the academics - I wanted to share ideas, to be around people who are passionate about learning.

But it's a journey and the sad thing is you only learn from experience, so as much as someone can tell you things, you have to go out there and make your own mistakes in order to learn.

I find the whole concept of being ‘sexy’ embarrassing and confusing.

I get sent Bibles. I have a collection of about 20 in my room. People think I need to be guided.
