Please tell us about your recent and upcoming projects.
Most recently we did our first ever New York Fashion Week presentation,
previewing our SS18 to press, friends and influencers in New York. I
can’t really speak much about what is coming up but you will find out
soon!
What is a typical day like?
At the moment, I am really into yoga at sunrise but it changes month
to month. I love exercising in the morning, it gets the endorphins going
so this is how I start my day. I am usually in the office at 9 a.m. and
leave when the work is done. A typical day at the office will consist
of meetings, brainstorm sessions, sampling, planning campaigns and
shipping out orders. I am super hands on so there is no normal day.
What will we find in your closet?
Mochi, every piece from every collection and a lot of shoes! I often start
with a pair of shoes before creating a collection – I visualise the pair of
shoes I would wear with it. I am also a bit of a sneaker hoarder, so you
will find lots of sneakers as well.
Any fashion pet peeves?
I hate try-hards. They actually drive me up the wall. You don’t have to
always stick to the exact trend every season. Be yourself and be out the
box.
A style tip that you would like to share with our readers.
Always wear lipstick and mix your basics with some fun elements. Also,
a good pair of jeans is always the perfect accessory.
