<p>“It changes with every designer, of course. Each one has his own vision and the milliner must feel confident enough in his role to be able to empathise. I tell you, one of the absolute characteristics a milliner requires is being a <em>v<strong>ery good listener.</strong></em> And that does not mean emails. It means face-to-face.

I carry a sketchbook everywhere and, on the plane, I start to draw. <strong>My job is to take the designer’s aesthetic and my aesthetic, combine the two and make something to put on the head!</strong></p>
