Last night I opened the fantastic exhibition of ‘Foale and Tuffin - Made in England’ at the Fashion and Textile Museum.
If you are in London this is very worthwhile visiting, especially for young designers and students.

The exhibition will present a vibrant and inspiring representation of two key British fashion designers of the 1960s and the part they played in creating the changing London scene.

I just had a really nice visitor, Tre Cool, the drummer from Green Day and his girlfriend Ruri. Really nice people. He is currently on tour and just popped in to say hello, and now he’s off to get a Bespoke suit fitted at Westbourne House.

After working all day in Tokyo on Sunday, I caught an overnight flight to New York 14 hours long but arriving in New York 10 minutes before I left on the same day!!! (because of the enormous time difference: 14 hours behind Japan!) I was there to have various press events starting early on Monday morning with an hour long podcast for American GQ and then interview with WWD and then in the evening an event in department store Barneys with a Q&A session with their creative Director Simon Doonan, who is a very lively, lovely, cheeky Brit. It was really well attended, everyone had a great time.
