Cassandra Featonby Smith Q&A with Mr Price
Fashion:
This is
your first collaboration with Mr P, what is the inspiration behind your
jewellery collection?
I was unemployed with lots of spare time
and spent a lot of that time roaming the aisles of hardware stores (something I
picked up from my dad!). My interest in rope particularly, was sparked by the
macramé trend that started in the 70’s and is back in a big way, fashion always
repeats itself.
Do you have
a favourite piece in your collection?
The first piece I made which was the twisted
knot necklace.
Describe
yourself in 3 words?
Happy-go-lucky
What is the
summer must-have you cannot live without?
A neon rope necklace!
What is
your motto/quote that you live by?
“A lot of people never use their initiative
because no-one told them to.” - Banksy
What is
your favourite look to rock with your jewellery?
Jeans and a tee. Let the jewellery make
the outfit.
What do you
love the most about being a designer?
Having the ability to create whatever you want,
if you brave enough to take criticism
What are
you listening to on your i-pod at the moment?
A lot of Hip Hop from the golden age.
If you
could be a character in fiction or film, what would you be?
Wednesday Adams from the Adams Family.
What is the
best advice you’ve ever been given?
