I'm a real Londoner. We have very grey weather in London, and I think it encourages a very eclectic and crazy fashion sense. I mix high-street stuff with more high-end fashion, and I love vintage.

I have a real thing for Mexican directors. And I love Guillermo del Toro and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu.

I love vintage shopping, I think it's really fun. And I love the feeling of finding the most amazing piece for less.

I love Dolce & Gabbana. I love Versace. I love the crazy, more eccentric stuff.

I am more vintage than I am high fashion.

I'm a feminist, but I think that romance has been taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in novels is this idea of an overpowering, encompassing love - and it being more important and special than anything and everything else.
