Simone Rocha

Yeah, hard to pick just one.

Among them, Paul Meskel, is that right?

Mm-hmm.

And Paul's incredible and such a talented man and a fellow countryman.

Loved dressing Paul.

Also recently, Josh O'Connor, who I also think is incredibly talented.

But then I was thinking the other day, because people were like, who would you love to dress?

And I thought it would have been amazing if someone like Francis Bacon wore my clothes or Samuel Beckett, you know, like just thinking about

Men with maybe a sense of intimacy in their work, you know, is kind of what I'm kind of attracted to.

Does your partner wear your men's clothes?

He does.

And he, at the very beginning, was very kind and would try a lot of it on for me.

I don't know.

I've been living with it so long.

I'm like, is it surprising?

I think it feels very authentic to me.

And that's really important to me that no matter what I put out as part of the label, it feels authentic.

And I think what's been really nice is playing with these different characters and codes.

And what I think has come out of it is this kind of

similar to what I do, like a congregation of people coming together and hopefully it's clothes that make people feel something.
