How would you describe your personal visual code?

My visual code is a mix of brains and instinct. I usually go for dark tones and sharp shapes, like I am heading to a midnight lecture in an alternate universe. Sometimes it is a tracksuit, sometimes a vintage coat, but always with a mood. I wear glasses a lot, partly because I need them and partly because they make it very clear someone here is thinking. Or at least pretending to.

Which fashion eras or designers shape your aesthetic? Definitely Martin Margiela. There is something about that deconstructed clarity that just clicks with me. And if I had a fashion time machine I would park it somewhere between 1995 and 2005. That era had just the right amount of weird raw and genius energy like fashion knew exactly what it was doing and did not care if anyone else understood.

How do you relate to the concept of fashion as art? That is what fashion is built on. And honestly what could be more beautiful than creating art that people carry with them. They do not just look at it they live in it. Fashion lets ideas move through the world on real bodies in real time. That is what makes it feel alive.
