How would you describe your style?
I would say something along the lines of modern grunge but my boyfriend keeps teasing me and says it's more like "Versace meets skid row".
What is there too much of in your wardrobe?
Black leather. I have dozens of beaten black leather jackets, shoes and bags. It can get hard to navigate, but I never have to worry about matching.
What are your go-to labels?
Rick Owens
, Ann Demeulemeester
, Helmut Lang
, Isabel Marant
, Alaia, the list goes on, there are so many brilliant labels.
What's the most treasured possession in your wardrobe?
A white leather jacket product sample from BLKDNM that I forced them to sell me before it went into production. [Swedish designer] Johan Lindeberg has his own that he wears and I had been pestering him to make one for me, so when I saw it on a mannequin I yanked it off! They make one for women now but it's not quite the same.
Do you plan your outfits or throw on whatever's to hand?
I generally throw on whatever's to hand and am often an eyesore.
What are you happiest wearing?
Leather pants, a chunky sweater and Isabel Marant high-tops
.
Whose wardrobe would you love to steal?
Without hesitation Michael Jackson's
!
How do you organise your wardrobe?
My closets are organised by color with complete disregard of type of item or texture.
Where do you look for inspiration if you don't know what to wear?
My best friend Julia. She's incredibly polished but never prim.
Have you ever had a stylist and, if so, what are the best tips they've ever given you?
I've never had one but I'd like to though. It's truly a talent I envy. Even though I love fashion, I'm not much for shopping or coordinating looks so it often feels like work.
If there is one label we should watch out for in 2012 what should it be?
Alistair Carr
the design director at Pringle looks like he's doing some exciting things.
What is the most extreme thing you have done for the love of fashion?
I had to bleach my eyebrows for a shoot and ended up maintaining them for two months.
