Inspired by the unpredictably multiple personality disorder of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, DUALITY, an editorial for Huf Magazine, questions what tailoring means to tradition and redefines it for a new generation.

“I’m a fountain of blood in the shape of a girl,” I thought of these lyrics from Björk’s hit, Bachelorette, when I was writing this. A friend suggested the pattern on this Louis Vuitton SS17 mohair pullover reminded her of a vagina when she first saw it. While I’d vehemently contest that description, it’s after […]
