I'm not a designer, I'm a creator. To me, it's always been about collaboration, I've never studied styling or fashion. As far as I'm concerned, it boils down to common sense: have fun, more importantly have fun with your friends and keep a global view on what you're doing.

There are so many young designers who need stock, who need my push. With the commerce, the one thing I knew is that I wanted to have things that were affordable. I was always one of those customers that would go to an amazing store and be like, "Um, what's the least expensive thing?"

My uniform is usually just comfortable clothing. Being a stylist, you spend most of the day at photo shoots covered in safety pins.

I'm just inspired by different people, friends around me.

I was born in Japan, so for me, Uniqlo is a family brand. My granny used to wear Uniqlo. And my Italian dad wore Uniqlo. I wore Uniqlo, of course.

I am terrible at making food. I love eating, but I can't make anything.

I think when you start talking about money, it stops the whole creative process for me.
