Video Transcript

"This is where designing becomes a lot of fun for me is when I take a step back and take a deep breath and say alright I don't have to produce any certain thing. I am just going to let myself design, let myself blindly draw and that is when you can have the most fun. If you don't have any restrictions, don't have any parameters then what you create is completely and intrinsically yours. It belongs to nobody else, even if it comes across looking kind of dumb at first, kind of weird, that can be the whole point of your collection. Like here I have my asymmetrical theme and I let myself just think of this in about 30 seconds but it has become one of my favorite things that I've ever done and I do want to produce this in actual three dimensions and wear it because it's the way that the lines follow the body and the way that it accentuates and minimizes at the same time is perfect, perfect, perfect. I cannot say enough about this. That is when you know that you are truly happy with something that you've already done is when you cannot wait to reproduce it in actual fabric, when you say, oh my god I've got to make that so I can wear it tomorrow. That is when you know that you are on the right path and that everything you are doing is truly, truly something you should be doing."
