I don't come from a family of slackers, but I do come from a family of doers.

Picking your favourite look is like picking your favourite child! I get so emotionally attached to each one.

The thing that I really look for in people is enthusiasm and excitement and, not to sound really sappy, that fire in their eyes.

The worst thing you could ever get is people who think they know everything.

I did not have a van, or wear Birkenstocks and tie-dyes.

Fall 2013 was inspired by the 1970s equestrian lifestyle. I wanted to incorporate the moody and romantic - intricate baroque detailing and classic menswear elements - with something tougher and edgier in a nod to London's rock n' roll underground.

Accessories are everything. To me, they're more important than the clothes.
