“We’re not having anyone sponsor us—because we’re foolish. We don’t have a PR person. I think there’s something a bit more humble about it. We do everything. We do the sales and stuff. I like that in the beginning, to meet and greet people; really tell people the way I see it. …
I really don’t go too deep into a concept because I think that can feel a bit contrived. But I take inspiration from photos, although it’s not really a specific era or moment. I like the idea of ‘I use this fabric because I love it: what can it fall into, how can I use it?’
Color, and then fabric, is first for me. Then I was looking at a number of old French photos. There’s a photograph of a boy, taken from behind, facing a mirror. I don’t think it’s attributed to a single photographer, but I’ve been thinking about it. He just wears woven shorts rolled up, and stripes.”
