I love Drake -- he is very talented and I like his effortless attitude in terms of his style and music.
I'm not inspired by space in that kind of futuristic sense, but I've never liked retro. Of course, we always get references from the past, but that doesn't mean that the clothes have to look like the past. We need to look forward, which is why I'm fascinated by new materials, technologies, techniques, and unusual ways to use colors or textures.

We always started these albums as making demos, that went right on until Scary Monsters.
