"I never wanted to please, as long as I could follow my beliefs. I always and only thought about my own time and the birth of an entire generation. I heard so much about my proportions, and how absurd and unsuccessful, for instance, my skinny jeans and silhouette would be. I also heard about my lack of definition in masculinity, as I was aiming to try another definition. I also was questioned about my attraction to music, as I still believe there is no fashion without music."
