"In my shows, I always try to incorporate music because it’s the most natural way to set a tone. So if I want to do a show about depression, I use the opera. If I want to do a show about greed, I use spoken word. If I want to do a show about the injustice that’s taking place in the world, I might play Sam Cooke. It’s a way for me to pre-deliver a message before I deliver said message through fashion. And the way it's been coming out in my shows now, I feel naked without a live music element on the runway.”
