What's your favourite thing about working at fashion week?
The buzz! It's frantic, stressful, but fun.
What look do you predict we'll be seeing a lot of?
The return of the seventies glamour, with looser hair, centre partings and lots of movement. Waves will be big.
How long have you been working backstage at shows?
For about the last 15 years
What's your fashion week kit bag essential?
It would have to be a Mason Pearson brush. It's a must-have tool.
What do you look for in team members?
People that listen, can execute the technical brief, and that stay calm under pressure.
Best advice for surviving fashion week?
If you're there for the week, don't over-do the after parties - save it up for your final show, then party hard... trust me, I speak from experience!
