"Leather has a real durability and functionality." — Matthew Williamson

Creating a bridalwear collection was a natural progression from my evening wear collections, which are well known for their softly draped and diaphanous silk gowns.

You can't deny the experience of a store. It's fantastic if you're a global brand and you've got the power or the funds to support that bricks-and-mortar space, but we certainly weren't and aren't.

I wanted to start a menswear line of slim-fitting, luxury cashmere jumpers in a range of great colours.

I've been fascinated with interior design for as long as I can remember.

I love the fact that H&M has created a new phenomenon in fashion through the pioneering concept of collaborating with high-end designers to create one-off limited-edition capsule collections. I am thrilled that my creations for H&M will be accessible to - and hopefully enjoyed by - so many people around the world.

I wanted to explore the Seventies idea of the ideal futuristic woman. So I watched cheesy films like 'Weird Science' and more dodgy things like 'Star Trek,' 'Barbarella' and 'Logan's Run.'

I've been to most parts of India over the years, but Jaipur is my favourite city. Inspiration can be found at every turn.
