It's sad that the cell phone is replacing the watch as a time-telling device. I wear a vintage watch that's really skinny.Collection: Sad
I love the idea of things being strict and things being uniform. That's the reason why I surround each collection with humor or irony. I want to make sure that it's not too serious and that there is some element that throws it off because otherwise that would make it really boring. There's always a story that's somewhat fantastical.Collection: Humor

As a designer, I'm supposed to be provoking people's reactions, and getting people to see things differently. I think more of us should be doing this.

That's the only way things move forward.Collection: Moving
The most uninteresting thing for me is when somebody thinks too much about how they put themselves together.Collection: Thinking

If you’re constantly open to inspiration, it will come to you. The worst thing a man can do is pressure himself into an idea.Collection: Inspiration
I feel like jeans and a T-shirt have become Establishment. Everyone’s dressed down. So actually putting on a jacket is the anti-Establishment stance.Collection: Jeans
Men shouldn’t try too hard, or think about what they wear too much. I like when there’s something about a look that throws it off a little – perfection is really imperfect.Collection: Men
I don’t understand why everybody thinks that dressing casually is so much more comfortable. I’m as comfortable in a suit as I am in anything else.Collection: Thinking
