What are you wearing?
“At the moment I’m wearing some Nike Flights I bought in Amsterdam about a week ago – Amsterdam is amazing – a skirt that I made for a fashion show, a crop top from Primark and a jacket that my friend made.”
How would you describe your style?
“Sometimes I wake up and wear really grungy, boyish things and other days I wake up and look like I’ve just stepped out of Clueless like today. I don’t really think I have a style I just mix and match.”
