“We all come from different parts of the planet and every walk of life, and we come together in this mad ball of energy.” (Vogue May 2007)

“Yeah, in some ways I feel like I’ve been 21 for a few years now.” (Style.com January 2008)

“I’ve always been into clothes. I mostly buy vintage things, or pick things up at markets or on the High Street, and then I cut them up or pin them together or add things. When I was 14, I’d wake up early before school and lay out my outfit for the day on my bed. Then I’d put it on and start pinning and cutting so that by the time I got downstairs it looked completely different.” (Vogue UK January 2008)

“I don’t exercise. I should, just to feel better, for my mind. But I go out dancing and I walk a lot. I tried yoga but found it boring.” (Vogue UK January 2008)

“I don’t think about the future really. Mostly I just feel that I’m in this moment and on this adventure. Doing the shows is like being part of a travelling circus, and when I’m on a shoot it’s like telling a story with clothes. I’ve discovered that I love doing this job, that I’m surrounded by amazing and talented people. That’s how I think of myself: as a creative person.” (Vogue UK January 2008)
