My life, my choices, my mistakes, my lessons- NOT YOUR BUSINESS.
I always like to incorporate one or two chic accessories that contrast with the more gritty look of my daily uniform: a leather jacket and jeans.
An easy way to find your own style is to exaggerate yourself a bit and then find a balance.
Everything I do with BLK DNM is more personal than anything I have done before. I've worked hard to go deeper in my true intuition, and therefore I am definitely more pure in my personal taste than ever.
I think it's great to use fashion to develop your personality and express who you really are.
My first girlfriend, when I was about 18, was a fashion designer, and my sister was a fashion designer as well. I've always been into shopping, and I've always been very aesthetic, in a sense.
I think jeans have gotten away from the original meaning, that symbol of freedom; they've gone gimmicky and turned into a status item. Our denim is offered at lower price points for that reason. As far as the men's clothing in the collection, it's basically my wardrobe. I think men's clothes should be grounded, strong and classic. I like simple: a blazer, jeans, a low cut tee and maybe a silk scarf.
That mind which understands itself is the mind of a free man.
Sometime we'll try and reach for things we know we each want and don't deserve.
This is not a peace. It is an armistice for twenty years.
In a funny way, the stories keep themselves alive by emerging from one another. I like that.
