I didn't go to school for fashion, I didn't have anybody to teach me anything about fashion - that's all I knew how to do, graphic design.

I don't just want to put a price tag on pieces because I can. I don't want put a price tag on pieces that are unreasonable either. Just because people might buy it doesn't mean you won't alienate fans eventually.

Somebody once told me if you're doing what you're supposed to you don't have to force it.

I was at work but my soul wasn't there, my body was there but I wasn't connecting to what I was doing. Eventually I decided to get out of there and do something I believe in.

I was working a corporate job for years and it always felt restrictive, it felt like I was doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing.

If you don't have customers to sell to, you can't commit to anything with textile factories or manufacturing factories because you don't know if you'll be able to sell the quantities they're asking you to fill.

I wanted to give people an experience. I wanted them to get their money's worth.
