You were once a research intern at Givenchy archive in Paris . Please share what that experience was like for you , and how it may have impacted your creative prowess today ?
Working with the
Givenchy archives has been one of the greatest pleasures of my career so far . I was still studying in London at the time ,
“ When it comes to design , I ’ m a firm believer in the idea that the past shapes the future ”
but due to my focus on the history of Givenchy
I was asked to join the Archives in France for a couple of months . It was one of the first time I have worked in an environment where I fe was truly in the right place . When it com design , I ’ m a firm believer in the idea th past shapes the future , and looking at the of fashion and the designers that came can be essential in inspiring new w in the Archives and seeing how th celebrating their heritage has on that sentiment .
