When I'm hell-bent on something, there's no way around it. I can be a very stubborn.

People think I'm being stupid or false humble. It's not. I don't think I always fit in. Maybe it's a complex you get as someone who has always been fighting on the outside.

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 just love the ideal of the surreal quality of putting it on a shoe.

I follow my inspiration to wherever it goes. I do want the fans to feel the fun and excitement about it, and I like for people to be able to make their own interpretations about my work. I don't like to overexplain it.

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.

I love what I do, and I only want more. I love the whole process. I love designing, I love figuring out how to make the clothes happen, I love the ad campaigns.
