“I feel quite fearless protecting the people I love.”

I’m very affected by what I watch and read.

We live in a society where everything’s packaged.

I don’t understand why the accent you speak in has to indicate what level of intellect you have.

Adele’s like a beacon of honesty. Doesn’t compromise, goes to America and she’s still the same sweary cockney.

I’m proud of being British, but I think our aristocracy is overrated.

I don’t feel I fit in with morning television because I’m like a vampire and I like to stay up late.

I have a lot of admiration for people who’ve been in relationships a long time, married for years.

Mum doesn’t like it when I mention that Dad’s a better cook than her. He was born in Spain and spent eight years in Portugal and is exceptional at lots of cuisines.

I’m so used to changing time zones that I can sleep at any time. I’m rarely ever tossing and turning – if I am, it’s really a big deal.

No one ever chats me up; I think they all think I’m taken. Either that or no one fancies me.

My mum came from nothing and didn’t have many opportunities in her youth, and she blames a lot of her social inadequacies on that.

I like sparkles; I think I’m a magpie.

The freedom that money gives you makes you… well, I wouldn’t say happy, but I’d say it gives you diversity.

I don’t have a competitive bone in my body, so the last thing I want to do is be competing with people.

I don’t overthink when I’m styling. I kind of forgive myself and accept that I will make mistakes. Getting dressed should be a fun experience!

I really like to please people, and I think it’s a symptom of being an only child.

I’ve always loved music and felt connected to it, but was too afraid to explore that avenue.

I feel like I’m wearing orthopedic shoes, because I stand corrected.

You shouldn’t feel sorry for the lifestyle you haven’t tasted, but for the one you are about to lose.

I loved my baby dolls when I was a kid. I used to pray with them and say good night to each and every one of them because I didn’t want their feelings to get hurt. I remember having that connection with my baby dolls.

A new time is coming both for my personal life, and the brand Ann Demeulemeester. I feel it’s time to separate our paths.

For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.

Don’t be afraid to feel everything.

I don’t like how your embrace feels like comfort till the knife thrust.
