“We've always been into long, structured shapes, and we wanted to move on to something else. We're trying to do a lot of layering and draping. The idea was that if wind hits the garments, they'd create a lot of volume. Last season was such a strange time, but in the end, it didn't change anything. This is what we do, and now we're doing it again.”

“In every collection we've kind of dabbled in a little bit of everything, whether it's the embroidery or things that are really tactile, like yarns. And we're actually really strong in knitwear. It's not any one particular thing. And we always try to throw in something that has more of a personal feel to it. Sometimes it's not just about a pair of pants, you know, there always might be a little bit of humor in something. If you split the legs open there's air holes on the bottom. We try to take time to make it a little bit more personal. But in terms of inspirations, I guess it's about everything.”

“Bruce, which is designed by Daphne Gutierrez and Nicole Noselli, has consistently been in the vanguard of a cerebral, slightly helter-skelter femininity.”

“At first your concern is, ‘what would it be like coming back?' In hindsight, right now, it was a really good thing… to re-think things. You're style changes and you're dressing for someone different [but] your aesthetic stays the same. We didn't make drastic changes. Visually it seems like the next step.”
