If I love a garment I wear it until it falls apart. Some of my clothes are
20 years old. I have started wearing heels this year and I love it. I wish I
had discovered them years ago. My favourite label is Marni.

Chapter 1: The Personality Collection Theory

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Designers has a fine line to walk in regards to whom they design. Do they design for themself or for the customer or both. I guess the answer is easy for or brands but it is not so easy if you view it from the buyers perspective. I am so bold to say that as soon the piece hits the store its no longer about the designer. It’s only about the consumer. The Personality Collection theory is based on the following Slow fashion values; reuse, redesign, limited editions, quality fabrics, customizing, craftsmanship, limited editions and target group understanding.

Favourite fashion designer: I go through phases. At the moment, it’s probably Marc Jacobs. This decision is usually based on colour. I like his use of colour in menswear. It’s really quite fun. I think “fun” is also a key concept for me.

Eve Morey
Actress
Age 26

I love the movie Annie Hall with Dianne Keaton – the film encompasses everything I love about fashion but with  a modern twist. I love clothes that are masculine and not conventionally feminine but when worn, creates it’s own sense of sexiness and femininity.
