I Don't Want To Be

I Find Beauty In The Grotesque, Like Most Artists.

My Friend George And I Were Walking On The Beach In Norfolk, And There Were Thousands Of [razor-clam] Shells. They Were So Beautiful, I Thought I Had To Do Something With Them. So, We Decided To Make [a Dress] Out Of Them. . . . The Shells Had Outlived Their Usefulness On The Beach, So We Put Them To Another Use On A Dress. Then Erin [o’conner] Came Out And Trashed The Dress, So Their Usefulness Was Over Once Again. Kind Of Like Fashion, Really.

There Is No Better Designer Than Nature

Beauty Can Come From The Strangest Of Places, Even The Most Disgusting Of Places.

Now I Design What I Want To Wear, And It Works That Way.
