What’s your biggest fashion regret?
“When I was in school, I teased my hair and wore jackets with big shoulder pads. It was very goth, like the French new wave band Indochine.”
Do you have a signature cocktail?
“Everywhere I go, I always order kir royale. It has become my trademark.”
What’s your favourite colour?
“Bright canary yellow! I had a yellow couch for 15 years, and I have yellow shoes and a yellow watch. I’m superstitious about it: When I go to important meetings, I always wear yellow.”

These are some great pieces. It is good to see a Canadian designer getting some recognition. I have to agree with him on the 80′s, acid wash jeans, shoulder pads, teased hair..what were we thinking and why would anyone want to bring it back?
