60 seconds with….. Kushion

Tell us a bit about your collections, your influences, your muses (if you have any), your background?

My collections are inspired by the mood of season. Nature is one of my favourite subjects because it always surprises me how many beautiful wonders there are. Art, folk, film noir, music and Erte's illustrations to name a few. 

BFW: What gets you out of bed in the morning?

My morning meditation and the hope for a sunny day.

BFW: What was the first thing you did when you woke up this
morning?
Snugging my husband

BFW: Sum up your style in three words.

Elegant, comfortable, feminine.  

BFW: If you were a piece of clothing what would you be and why?

A satin silk lounge rope - nothing between the skin and me and good for any intimate occasion. 


BFW: If you could have anyone, who would you want to model your collections and why?

Lara Stone, she has a modern beauty and a great shape. 

BFW: New York, Paris or London?

London.... with a quick Eurostar trip to Paris?

BFW: You are given the opportunity to redesign  the Police uniform, what would you do?

That would be confidential, police policy. But there would be black and navy trousers and some padding in the body armour's shoulders. 

BFW: Favourite thing about the fashion industry?

How everything can be taken as a joke. 

BFW: Worst thing?

How the joke doesn't know were to stop and of course the unethical production practices.

BFW: Best moment in your life so far?

I have too many and don't like to put a number on them. 

BFW: Top fashion designer?

At the moment I'm going to say Alexandre Herchcovitch

BFW: Who’s the best dressed person you’ve ever met?

Madame Vivienne?

BFW: Favourite thing about Brighton?

The streets and the people

BFW: Most prized personal possession?

One of my Grandma's ring, it's like this magic ring that reminds me of how cool she was. 

BFW: Where do you see yourself in five years?

Designing, cutting and printing by the sea of Santa Marta.
