Simone Rocha

I think people are people no matter what gender.

And I think no matter what gender you are, you can love something or you can hate something, you know, or you can be attracted to it or you can be like, that's not for me.

You know, so I think it's still very much, you know, my clothing is,

women borrowed from the men's, men borrowed from the women's, and I always wanted to be that exchange.

And I think, I think with things that become part of the conversation, I think what's even better is that then it doesn't have to be a hot topic.

It can just be narrative, how people live their lives.

And that's something that, you know, I love and really try to embrace.

Yeah, I think that's the magic of fashion.

Sometimes it takes people to put things out there that you didn't know that you wanted.

Or maybe there's like a secret inside and you get to unlock it.

You know what I mean?

And I love that.

And especially, you know, when I started showing in...

what was it, 2022, the men's and women's, there was a lot of crossover of pieces and fabrications and silhouettes.

And there's still that.

But now they've still got their own codes.

But I always think there should be an exchange.

Because I think it's more than that.

It's more than clothing, you know.

I mean, you have to really love it.
