 Questions:

1. What city do you live in, and how long have you called it home? I grew up in the smallest town called Louis Trichardt and Jozi became my home when I moved here at 18.

2.What do you do? I am a freelance Art Director in advertising.

3. What is one of the raddest things you have done wearing a pair of jeans? Bedazzling

4. If you could live in someone else’s ‘jeans’ for a day who would that person be? It wouldn’t be a person. It would be a cat. In a stone washed denim suit and bow tie. What a life.

5. What is the one thing/person that influences your style the most? Sir Oliver Geoffrey & Harold john Morrison tell me what not to wear. They are my very furry indoor Persians cats. In example; Don’t wear black because you will look like a mottled big foot with a polyester furr coat, stockings are a no no, your legs will look look like tree stumps and look like scratch pads to the average kitty.

6. Would you rather have jazz hands growing out the top of your head or spaghetti bolognaise for hair? Defs jazz hands – I was born to dance!

Questions:

1. What city do you live in, and how long have you called it home? Johannesburg. I have lived in several cities around the world but have to say Joburg has always been home. Whether i like it or not, we seem to be forever bound, sometimes I think like star-crossed lovers, other times more like an old cantankerous couple bitter and twisted from decades of misunderstanding.

2.What do you do? I am a filmmaker by training. A commercial director by trade. A frustrated polemic by night. A golfing bedroom dj on weekends.

3. What is one of the raddest things you have done wearing a pair of jeans? Fallen in love.

4. If you could live in someone else’s ‘jeans’ for a day who would that person be? I am not sure how often he wears them but Paul Thomas Anderson’s jeans have a certain allure. I imagine there is a pair that have been torn and patched over and over again, with lingering evidences of There Will Be Blood, Magnolia and Boogie Nights caught in the seams. Maybe not Boogie Nights so much.

5. What is the one thing/person that influences your style the most? I love mixing super fitted elegant stuff with street wear. It is like a mixture of old and young. Considering I am getting on now, somewhat reluctantly, this contrast is fitting.

6. Would you rather have an extra mouth on your forehead that sings Michael Bolton covers all day long or a chin that looks like Mr.Bean and thinks that it’s married to you, so it serenades you all day long? Thats easy. Michael Bolton. I feel that lending some unnecessary melodrama, and overzealous alto toned sincerity to my presence would be a great thing for those moments where the conversation dries up.
