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 confess to being a frustrated musician.

More than anything I want to be fit so I don't get out of breath when I play football with the kids.

I personally love sportswear, and love using it in high fashion.

At the end of the day I separate things; my life is my life and my work is my work.

Someone from Manolo Blahnik went into my shop and said: 'These shoes are not vegetarian.' That's the highest compliment, because you just can't tell that they are, and they are. My mum taught me to have a soul.

Everyone can do simple things to make a difference, and every little bit really does count.
