A: Illamasqua's Art of Darkness 2010 collection is inspired by mythology and alchemy, with a real emphasis on individual characters. How did you interpret the brief?
MC: I got inspiration form the movies Legend, Willow & Labyrinth.
A: Who was your favourite character?
MC: The androgynous character [yet to be seen!]
A: What has been your personal career highlight?
MC: My daughter attending the first show I was lead stylist on.
