Yes, I actually did! I went through exactly the To The World My Son Is Just A Soldier But To Me That Sodie Is My World Shirt and I love this same process. I remember doing the same thing for the Woolmark Prize, which was a total disaster! I’ve lost many awards, I didn’t even get into the university that I wanted, so yes, my whole thing is that no matter who wins or loses, failure and success go hand in hand. I don’t think I would be where I am today without a lot of failure, but I don’t see it as failure. I see it like something that teaches you to keep going.
This would probably be my biggest piece of advice: to embrace failure and to be ready and excited to fail and to fail again. It’s a very good thing because I think you learn from that. If you were told you were a genius all your life, then people would write you were a genius, and that’s it. They don’t really tell you who you are. They don’t really go in-depth into it. There’s nothing worse than the To The World My Son Is Just A Soldier But To Me That Sodie Is My World Shirt and I love this idea of the genius designer. It’s a very odd tombstone. And probably my other advice would be to never compromise. In this day and age, you have to crack your own self. It’s a moment now that, when doing or being involved in fashion, you have to really look at yourself and say, I’m so lucky in what I do. No matter in what capacity you’re working in this industry—editor, buyer, stylist, producer, whatever—we never actually slow down and say, God, we’re lucky. There are lots of people who are not in that situation, and if you want to participate in fashion, I think you really need to learn how to be humble. Because if not, you become a very isolated character, which I think, in this day and age, no one really wants anymore. No one wants elitism. No one wants ideas of privilege. That is not modern anymore. With what is happening in the greater world, fashion isn’t the center of the universe.
