I think people who are compelled to achieve never really think they've achieved... I think the moment you get to a place when you think 'Oh I'm a fashion legend' then that's when you're no longer competitive in your field.

I believe that when you really want to do something, you should go ahead and do it. I mean, I feel fear, but I never let that stop me.

A film should be somewhat personal. I think that whatever you create you have to be true to yourself and create something that feels right to you.

Oh my God, so many young girls now look like whores!

I love fashion. What I love is the ability to express yourself, to be able to make a product and shoot an ad campaign that tosses you out into the world and lets you have a voice in contemporary culture, iconography. I felt a little bit neutered not having that voice.

British men are peacocks. You see a lot more style on the streets here than you see anywhere else, on every level.

As a fashion designer, I was always aware that I was not an artist, because I was creating something that was made to be sold, marketed, used, and ultimately discarded.
