You can't have style if you don't have substance.

Film is such a very good tool for communicating emotions, and all designers and creative people look to inspire an emotional response.

Tailoring was considered to be a world that was very traditional, and basically going out of fashion. Fashion designers did not have a real link with tailoring or tradition, so I fused the two worlds together.

Shirt collars are very important to me. Putting a very soft shirt collar with a formal suit doesn't work for me at all.

I'm ready to do womenswear. You've always got to be inspired by something new - women have so much more shape and I'm about finding what to engineer around those shapes.

My wife and I have a tradition of popcorn and videos with our kids on Friday evenings.

If you're a designer, there's got to be some films that you've seen that have inspired you creatively. There's no escaping that.
