“I have been working on the men’s collections; drawing on the lasts and pattern-cutting. When I am not working, I am watching Netflix and reading. I watched the most fantastic mini-series called The English Game, about football. It features Edward Holcroft – who is marvellous and one of the best actors of our generation, as well as James Norton. I have been re-reading a lot of Balzac novels – I adore 19th century novels.”
