The biggest thing I'm seeing - and I have to be careful what I say here - is that people are tired of the old guard and the familiar brands.

Even though it's not a widely appreciated yarn, any suit made from a mohair-wool blend travels exceptionally well.

Mohair also breathes really well, keeping you cool or warm, and is therefore extremely versatile.

I'm a very hands-on Creative Director, and I need to feel comfortable and be able to move between both casual and more formal attire at the same time.

The whole process of being one of the 10 finalists for the 'Vogue' Fashion Fund award has to be my biggest achievement to date. Meeting Anna Wintour, Diane von Furstenberg, etc., has been an amazing experience that even now gives me goose bumps when I think about it.
