"One of my favorite things about working in fashion is that a single spell of creativity can inspire the efforts of dozens of people and result in months of execution. Last fall, on the eve of opening our first permanent shop in Bergdorf Goodman in New York, I sat down and, for about nine hours, painted freehand a 40-foot-long drop cloth with the codes of the Maison: body parts, padlocks and keyholes, measuring tapes and bijoux were rendered in black ink on bone-white cotton—the finished canvas served as both that night’s tablecloth at our dinner, and later, this season’s creative jumping off-point." - Daniel Roseberry.
