Where do you prefer to shop?
“I myself am a Online Store started so I wear a lot of my own brand. I will go a lot further be economical, I think it’s important to be ecological and think about the planet. My tip is his Gideon, who is located in Noord and Zuidoost, where they really have everything from clothing to furniture for a very affordable price. I also like Rataplan. I would especially go early, then you will encounter the most beautiful things.”
Do you ever make mistakes?
”Yes, quite often, but then I either sell it or return it to the cycle.”

What is your best purchase?
“I think my investment is in my own fashion label. I was moving and I got rid of a lot of clothes. After that I started a new collection with garments that I know I will wear often and for a long time. I’m really against fast fashion.“
How much money do you spend on clothing per month?
“Sometimes I buy a bag with stuff for 15 euros. I think about 30 euros per month on clothing. Yes my bags, shoes and sunglasses are a bit more expensive, but I like to set aside some money for that. My tattoos are investments, but I used to be above a tattoo artist so I didn’t think to pay for everything.”
Tell me, what are you wearing today?
“Yezy slides, goat wool socks, my shirt and pants are from my own label, Louis Vuitton bag and my sunglasses are from Balenciaga.”
