who and what inspires you?
people and technicolor films. I am an avid people watcher, its amazing what you can pull from just observing the personal style of everyday people- its always changing but there are so many constants- keeps the creative juices flowing. In regards to film, I absolutely love the styling and set design of 1950’s romantic comedies, and the use of technicolor just makes the images so much more vivid- a pleasure to watch and find inspiration for Sir & Madame.
icons past & present
I dont really focus on ‘icons’. I simply admire people who are true to themselves and do what comes naturally.
the nublack philosophy/mantra according to Autumn Merritt
Complaining solves nothing, offer solutions to fix it.
