Quote

I'm not a designer, I'm a creator. To me, it's always been about collaboration, I've never studied styling or fashion. As far as I'm concerned, it boils down to common sense: have fun, more importantly have fun with your friends and keep a global view on what you're doing.

Fashion is such an insider's club, but slowly, the playing field is evening out. Through social media, everyone can have a front-row seat.

I want young people to be able to buy into what I design. When I was young, I wanted to buy designer brands even if all I could afford was the cheapest wallet, the cheapest pen, the cheapest T-shirt because I wanted to be a part of it.

There are so many young designers who need stock, who need my push. With the commerce, the one thing I knew is that I wanted to have things that were affordable. I was always one of those customers that would go to an amazing store and be like, Um, what's the least expensive thing?
