Living in London really helps you to realise the connection between fashion and music. I wanted to do a Dooder City-esque post on some musicians who I love, who definitely influenced my ideas of fashion and style. Of course, the 60s and the idea that we can be modern and responsible and form a community as young people have really influenced me, and the music reflected that. Then, musicians like Tom Waits (well, all these artists, really) show that you can be an individual and stay true to your art. You can do something different, and when you do, you become even more a part of your community, because you inspire others to be themselves and you all go through things together.
