more words that are not my own

Vogue to Kit Willow-Podgornik of Willow: what would you say is your biggest driving force?
Kit: being able to change a women’s mood for the day. when you put something on and you feel confident, it affects how people view you. fashion is such a powerful tool.

Vogue to Emma Hill, the Creative Director of Mulberry: are women limiting their spending on accessories, given the economic climate?
Emma: no, not really. the financial crisis was never really going to put a complete stop to women purchasing luxury items, but i do think the perception of luxury has shifted to women wanting less ‘look at me’ and more of a ‘i know who i am’ manner, to which Mulberry perfectly fits the bill.
Vogue: what, in your opinion, is the key to accessorising well?
Emma: following your heart and your instinct rather than any rules. have fun with it and understand that a great bag and fabulous shoes will always do your proud and be able to, in an instant, transform any look from ordinary to fabulous.

Vogue to Alexander Wang: what led you into Fashion Design?
Alexander: i couldn’t imagine doing anything else.

Vogue to Abbey-Lee Kershaw: where do you live in New York?
Abbey-Lee: in an apartment in Williamsburg, in Brooklyn, with my boyfriend. he came over with me from Australia. he’s a gem. it would have been a lot harder without him. we’ve been together a year and eight months.

Vogue Italia to Gail Reid of Gail Sorronda: what will be the future of fashion?
Gail: when aliens are legitimised by the government we will have access to alien technology in fashion, meaning greater exploration of fabrics and manufacturing techniques. i predict symbiotic technology where fashion is customised to your DNA.
