Such a wonderful morning @glasgowschoolofart.bsky.social with the Fashion Masters students, talking about bio materials, closed loop polymer processing, wool and the future of fashion in my 132 5 #IsseyMiyake dress. Fantastic questions from the students 🙏

Sometimes I just can’t sleep… this time in the middle of the night, I decided to just #markmake, #doodle and after 40 mins, I was relaxed enough to go back to sleep. Not my greatest effort, but possibly an occasional solution to insomnia, that has plagued me throughout #menopause

As a west coaster, I am definitely going to use this, instead of my usual - touch of the toothache, earache, menopause, sore foot, sore back, depressed, angry, sore hand from writing…🤣

In Norway, a standard response to ‘how are you?’ Is ‘up and not crying’. Seems like a reasonable standard to aim for in these dark days.

At 4pm I watched this brave teenager busking with her bagpipes. At 6.30pm on the same spot when I was taking the sunset photo, a distraught, drunk, high, young woman, was huckled into a police van. There is hope and fear, and a whole generation of young lives to support and nurture…

European friends: Do not accept lectures on democracy & freedom of speech from an Administration that denies the 2020 election results and is now suing & intimidating news outlets whose reporting they don’t like.

Stand tall against right-wing extremism.
