“I think it’s important for people to have their own sense of style—a personal style. I think there are certain rules, especially when you’re English, because you’re brought up on ‘this is how a gentleman should dress.’ If you’re lucky enough to be able to afford it, you can go to Savile Row and have a suit made, or you can go and see how people dress. We’re brought up around that. I think we’re lucky to have that. In that sense of fashion, and the way men dress, there are rules. But I do also think that rules are made to be broken and I think I’ve done that over the years, in good ways and in bad ways. But I’m having fun and I wear what I like to wear: I don’t get told what to wear.”
