I Was Born In Japan, So For

I'm Not An Elitist. I Hate The Fashion Industry Sometimes Because It Becomes So Focused On The Elite.

I'm Not A Designer, I'm A Creator.

I'm Half-japanese, So I Collect Toys, Like A Yayoi Kusama Stuffed Pumpkin.

I Want Young People To Be Able To Buy Into What I Design. When I Was Young, I Wanted To Buy Designer Brands Even If All I Could Afford Was The Cheapest Wallet, The Cheapest Pen, The Cheapest T-shirt Because I Wanted To Be A Part Of It.

The Dark Side Of Social Media Is That, Within Seconds, Anything Can Be Blown Out Of Proportion And Taken Out Of Context. And It's Very Difficult Not To Get Swept Up In It All.
