In this episode of Live Curiously, noted fashion writer and editor David Hellqvist speaks to the enigmatic JW Anderson about this upbringing in Ireland during "the troubles", and how his early obsession with Jean Paul Gaultier and leopard print sparked a lifelong love of style. Anderson talks about society's generational shift, globalisation, how fashion has to "eat itself" and the importance of making mistakes - linking notions of originality it to Titian and Rembrandt. Ultimately "you need the fantasy...and you have to find things that turn you on".
