“I always try to design fashion that is interesting and innovative, and...” — Jonathan Anderson Quote

I always try to design fashion that is interesting and innovative, and I like to break traditions and challenge people's expectations.

I've always loved collecting arts and crafts - I have pieces by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and William Morris at home in east London.

I collect primarily ceramics but also black-and-white photography and some bits of contemporary.

The problem with me and TV shows is once I start watching them, I have to watch them all because I'm so impatient. I need the entire series to be on TV, and then I'll sit all day and watch the entire thing. So I did that with 'Homeland,' and I did that with 'Veep.'

A challenge always is good. Normal design does not come under the constraints of a small budget and time frame. But it has helped me to make quick and knowledgeable decisions.

Unfortunately, the client that exists today is still pretty much the prototype design.

Looking back, video game design seems a natural fit, although there was no such thing when I was growing up. I built a Tic-Tac-Toe playing machine in my teens which went up in smoke on the night it was scheduled to go to a science fair.

Now I design what I want to wear, and it works that way.

I have a secret thought from some things I have observed, that God may perhaps design you for some singular service in the world.
