If I can make one generalised statement, and generalised statements are never entirely true, nobody wants to be talked down to, kids included.
If you look back at the history of creativity in clothes - the French Revolution, the First World War and the Second World War - they have all been creative reinventions, the moment new forms of luxury come into play.
You can have financial strength, professional strength, emotional strength but for me without spiritual strength none of the rest of it matters.
