I was first drawn to active wear because I enjoy working out, and it's very important in this day in age. I really felt women were getting the tail end of the design in active wear; not getting the technology or design we deserved. It was reserved for men. We were getting the leftover work from the sports design houses.

Sometimes I wish I were less sensible.

Being effortless is the coolest thing in the world

My mum taught me to have a soul.

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

For me, women's ski wear has always been black and, again, not as feminine or sexy as I think it could look while still having the technology there.

There's nothing fashionable about a dead animal that has been cruelly killed just because some people think it looks cool to wear.
