I´m a real believer that just doing a little something is a lot better than doing a lot of nothing.

I ride my bike, I work out, I do a bit of, er, dancey things.

I literally have meetings at eight o'clock in the morning, and I finish at nine o'clock at night. It sounds pathetic, but I don't even have time to go shopping.

I think it's very wrong to have the mass murder, every single day, of millions of animals.

The consumption of animals - whether you're wearing them or eating them - is extraordinarily damaging to the planet. There are over a billion animals killed a year for food, half of which don't even get eaten. And there's over 50 million animals killed just for fashion.

I think the moment that I'm very proud of is building a business without using animals. And, hopefully, changing people's perception of how you can do luxury fashion.

The main thing I need to do is create, hopefully, exquisitely beautiful, desirable objects for my customer.
