I see my work as being broader than traditional menswear. Everything is intentionally cut and fitted on men, but with the intent that it can be worn by anyone. I like how this shifts the proportions and silhouette, as it is these organic distortions that form the starting point of my clothes.
The clothes initially read as very traditional but there is an underlying sensuality. This comes from the tactile nature of my design process and the importance I place on how each garment feels to wear. To me, this is as crucial as how a piece looks.
