THE NORTH RIDING PROJECT

My fashion icon is Colonel Gaddafi, and he always has been. He’s rock ’n’ roll.  He’s bigger than a pop star. When he came to Paris in 2007, he was supposed to stay at the Hotel de Marigny, which is the best hotel.  But Gaddafi came with a tent.  It was this huge flagged tent – just him and his army guards, who were all girls.  They were in these crazy leopard outfits.  I mean, Gaddafi is way better dressed than any pop star in the world.
