“Ever since I was little I really loved boyish clothes – I had a real obsession with strict clothes, like uniforms. They really got me going.”

My dad was born in Chicago in 1908… his parents came from Russia. They settled in Chicago, where they lived in a little tiny grocery store with eight or nine children – in the backroom all together – and my grandmother got the idea to go into the movie business.

I love a star print. I always get a lurch if I see a nice one.

My earliest influences were Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent.

I grew up in the countryside, and I was obsessed with horses and wildlife.

Don’t believe everything you hear: Real eyes, Realize, Real lies.

Real loneliness is not necessarily limited to when you are alone.

I’m not perfect. But I’ll always be real.

The most loyal people don’t have too many friends because they have witness too many disloyal shit from people they thought was real.

It takes skill to be real. Time to heal each other.

If, then, my awareness of the past and future makes me less aware of the present, I must begin to wonder whether I am actually living in the real world.

Sometimes you look back at girls you spent money on rather than send it to your mum and you realise witchcraft is real.

Real talent doesn’t always win championships, like real music doesn’t always win Grammys.
