Favorite place to shop and why?

London because of the variety of styles and shops.

Favorite designer and why?

There are too many to chose which one, my favorite varies as seasons change. I love Dior, Balenciaga, Gucci, McQueen, Amanda Wakeley...too many to name them all.

If you could choose a celebrity to be your muse who would it be?

I don’t have a muse as I find it puts your designs into a category based on ONE person. I prefer to take inspiration from random things, not limiting my creativity and let my work speak for itself.

What item should every girl have in her wardrobe and why?

A LBD, it’s so versatile! Plus black is very flattering. A killer pair of heels and sexy little clutch bag are also a must.

If you had to describe yourself in one word what would it be?

Perfectionist.

Inspired by Motorcycles, my All Black collection incorporated a few elements from biker clothing and actual bike parts. I wanted to create something special, something with an edge yet very feminine and glamorous – couture.

My collection makes women look like women, but who can kick-ass at any given moment.

My fabrics ranged from different types of Italian leather, ostrich leg skin, rubber, cashmere wool, Swarovski trim, chiffon and satin back crepe.

Windscreens were used as corsets and embellished with Swarovski crystals spelling out ‘TRIUMPH’, one of the earliest Motorcycle brands.

Manipulating the fabrics and playing with various techniques is one of my trade marks. Quilted leather & satin, piped leather, panels of corded fabrics and cuts to flatter the figure all made my collection very textural and slick.

The sexy shapes and luxurious fabrics teamed with thick curved belts with actual Triumph and Norton bike tank badges, gave the collection that edge, an Attitude!
