I loved the idea that people dressed up to go to the gardens. Our work always has a utility point of view at its heartbeat and then other things come around it, so it really allowed us to use denims and suedes and gauzes, and those sorts of hard-working fabrics - workwear fabrics - and then contrast them with crepe de chine, beautiful florals and big jewelry.

There are a lot of things about my career now that are as I imagined, hoped for and worked towards.

We grew up with social media. There was no iPhone when we started! I love technology; I love what it does to my life. What I really love about social media and the Internet is that it has shifted the power it has democratised everything.

I prioritise my time so what needs to be done, gets done.

What I like about eyewear is that it can work with a lot of different looks. You can wear it with a Balenciaga dress, or something that is straight and very quirky.

The first item I designed for a real person was when I was about 10 and I made my first item of clothing for myself.

Always take one last look in a full-length mirror before leaving the house.
