Edward Enninful quotes

I grew up in west London, but my dad wouldn't let me go to school there, so I went in south London.

A lot of my friends, we all grew up sort of not very wealthy. And in England, whatever ends up being a negative, that's a positive.

Music, for me, is as important as fashion. The first visuals I remember are Elvis Presley, David Bowie, New Romantics, and different punk bands.

Social media and technology are democratising and opening up fashion and the process of fashion for all - this has good and bad sides, but that comes with any change.

Being an immigrant and living in England, I feel like I lived in two worlds. There was the world that, when I was at school with my friends, was very English, and then I'd go home to another country, with exotic foods and colours. I have a sense of colour pairings, and that came from my background, I think.

It was a whole new attitude: no makeup, less is more... the '90s were fun!

You could say slowly but surely, the world is changing in a good way - equality in all forms is more and more part of the global conversation, and people are celebrating diversity and individuality.
