A lot of people love Tarantino’s films because they’re spectacular, they’re beautiful, they’re wonderful.

Young designers will often look at things in a different way, and when I was first designing, that's exactly how I felt. People would say, 'That is wrong,' but 'That' was how I wanted it.
The moment I moved to New York City to study fashion, I met and became friends with people not only involved in fashion but in all the arts. It's quite fluid with so many types of artists, designers, and musicians who know each other through collaborations or friends of friends.
