"'They're so heavily symbolic,' he says. 'There's a kind of innocence and danger and magic to them.' However, it was only when he read a quote from the performance artist Leigh Bowery, who said 'the reason I use sequins… is because if I cannot cast the light, at least I can reflect it,' that the designer's vision crystallised."

A quotation from Child, Lydia Marie:

«««««
That man’s best works should be such bungling imitations of Nature’s infinite perfection, matters not much; but that he should make himself an imitation, this is the fact which Nature moans over, and deprecates beseechingly. Be spontaneous, be truthful, be free, and thus be individuals! is the song she sings through…
