Fashion Indie: How did I Heard They Eat Cigarettes come to be?
I Heard They Eat Cigarettes: Originally I Heard They Eat Cigarettes was going to be only jeans. I wanted to create a completely original pair of jeans with it’s own unique design features. A year or so down the track I found myself with some spare time and decided to design some shoes, and then t shirts, rings, leather hoodies and eventualy a whole range.
FI: What music is currently coming out of your speakers?
IHTEC: Operation Ivy
FI: What are your biggest inspirations?
IHTEC: Where I live ( Melbourne ) I think Melbourne has the best fashion / music in Australia. Because of the cold weather the kids usually have to wear layers of clothing to keep warm when they go out. One of the things that I am inspired by is what the kids are wearing on a cold night out in Melbourne.
FI: Who Is your favorite superhero and why?
