When you're a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you're not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will ever see it. You'll know it's there, so you're going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back.
I'm a fan of Adidas Originals. I love their Stan Smith collection.
Builders may receive due encouragement by having materials for building at reasonable prices.
Luxury lives in the finer details. It's a cloth napkin at a dinner table. It's a mint on your pillow before bed.
I very rarely wear suits, and only make one or two per season, so it's about wanting exceptional clothes that don't feel stiff. Fabric and garment washing are a big part of my design process for that reason. Everything needs to feel lived-in and comfortable.
People don't necessarily realise that there can be just as much work on a quiet jacket as an overblown gown.
I love the opportunity to get properly dressed up. I've worn three Lanvin dresses, and they've all been a dream. They're so well made, with the most beautiful craftsmanship. I don't tend to go with things that are ornate - just beautifully made pieces and some classic jewelry. Let the work speak for itself. I love that.
What made Louis Vuitton famous was the quality. We don't do marketing; we just create products which are exceptional in their design and craftsmanship.
I've got scarves and boots from' 1970 that I still wear.
I like Tom Ford a lot because it's so classic and has great quality. I wear a lot of Rag & Bone.
I love cashmere. For casual, I like Juicy Couture. I love the beading in Badgley Mischka. I like Dolce & Gabbana. There's such a lot to choose from.
Paper is a uniquely beautiful format, more so than the web, I think: you need to invest in the aesthetics.
I've always been a fan of Saint Laurent because I like how their jeans fit on me, but as far as high fashion, I don't wear too much high fashion. I like more streetwear and baggier stuff.
We never pull down the quality of the product, and I think that pays in the long term. People come up to me and say, 'I'm still wearing a Missoni sweater from 30 years ago, and it still looks great.' So quality, specificity and passion.
With stores like Topshop and H&M you can find really great stuff, but I do like designer things as well, and I'm lucky because they approach me to wear their stuff. I really love Miu Miu.
For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.
I wore Armani Prive to Cannes, and that was incredible. The craftsmanship is something I never understood until I wore it: the structure, the integrity of the fabrics, the colours, how things photograph.
I have been wearing clothes designed by Maheshwari for many years now.
Less is more. I truly believe in buying a few pieces with better construction.
I'm super drawn to the high-end brands because they're made with such care and great materials. I really love Chanel, it's my favorite.
Zegna has the perfect weight fabric. There are a lot of designers who make clothes that are a little too heavy. They feel heavy. They almost feel like a coat.
I'm a boots girl. I always wear boots. They only look better when they get dirty.
In terms of brands, Jovani is one of my favorites, and also Zhivago, and I love Steve Madden shoes.
I'm super into their trench coats. I've been wearing them for a while. Even my mom, she loves them. Definitely working with Burberry is a dope collaboration, just a good opportunity.
There's a reason good fabrics have a cost. They're done with good quality to last.
