Working at Moschino has been great because I just have to deliver when I have to deliver.

I think as humans we're nostalgic creatures and that's what we do. We go back to things that have a semblance of something comforting, or enough time passes that it seems cool again, or maybe it's something that some people didn't even experience.

The fact that people look at pictures so tiny on Instagram - people ask me about it popping on Instagram, but I didn't alter myself to be that. I didn't change for the screens, I've just been doing me.

When I first started my own brand, when I needed an icon, I had no other icon but myself. I had to create that.

I think the way the world has evolved, it's maybe caught up to me. It makes more sense and it makes it click on a larger scale.

I think I'm one of few American designers doing a house in Europe, and I think I've been proving myself there very well.

I always love trying to put my arms around more people. As a designer, it's a great compliment when people wear your clothes or buy your products, so to do things that are more affordable and have more of a distribution is always very exciting - especially when I can still bring my personality in complete, heavy doses. It's not a diluted version of me; it's a very clear extension of my personality.
