I think if we keep going the way we’re going… I’ve seen such a shift from just 10 years ago. You wouldn’t have seen certain people on the covers of things. Tess Holliday, Brittany Howard, Rebel Wilson. There’s a lot more visibility. I couldn’t say that 15 years ago. Now it feels like there’s a bigger presence and we’ve taken things into our own hands. People are doing it for themselves – as long as that keeps going, it’s bound to catch on. The thing we have to change most is the way we feel about ourselves before we can convince other people that we’re worthy human beings. That’s the way it goes with any kind of otherness.David Bowie, I love him so much. That’s because of his ability to change and that he took things that weren’t necessarily conventionally beautiful and made them incredible. I love punk rock. It’s more about looks than anything else. Gloria Steinem had an incredible look. I love the sister from The Wonder Years, Karen the hippy sister. She was a big influence. I love London because people just look cool, even when they’re not trying. That doesn’t happen in America.By handing over the control. That’s how I did it. I felt so, so, so stressed out. That’s how I’ve done it. When it comes to decisions, samples coming in or fittings, I was always there but when it comes down to fabrics, I just could not. I just didn’t have the capacity to think about it. That was a really helpful thing, to hand it to someone I trusted.No. I think we’re in a place where we are so marginalised that without that section… What people are really against is that we’re an afterthought; that there’s regular and acceptable and then “plus these”. In that context I understand why that bothers people but I think what’s important to do now is... I think we need a better name but I don’t really care. Call me what you want, I’m going to do what I wanna do. I think it’s important to have that conversation and get people thinking about it. We have to change people’s language. But really, I don’t give a shit!Shop the new collection at www.bethditto.com
